Saturn The Ringed Planet Very nice title slide. Ive got a few suggestions to make it better though. Your title can be simplified. Also, the contrast between text and background was not maximized. You must also cite your reference for the image. See suggestions in the next slide.

The Ringed Planet Cite the source of your image here

Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and second biggest planet in the Solar System. Saturn is a gas giant with an average radius about nine times that of Earth. Too many words. Display only the keywords. See suggested changes in the next slide.

Sixth planet 2 nd biggest Gas giant Radius 9x of Earth.

Saturn is known from its rings surrounding the giant. The rings are asteroids surrounding the planet, formed by gravity around Saturn. It is classified to be a gas giant because the exterior is predominantly composed of gas and it lacks a definite surface. Saturn is the only planet of the Solar System that is less dense than water. Keywords only please.

The average distance between the Sun and Saturn is about 1.4 billion kilometres. With an average orbital speed of 9.6 km/s, Saturn takes 29 ½ Earth days to complete one revolution around the Sun. The elliptical orbit of Saturn is inclined 2.48° relative to the orbital plane of the Earth. Keywords only please.

Organize- Slide 2 to 5 is about structure then you discussed behavior (revolution/rotation) in Slide 6 then you go back to structure in Slide 7. Group all slides dealing with a similar topic together. Will help you if you make an outline slide.

Saturn is termed a gas giant, but it is not entirely gaseous. The planet primarily consists of hydrogen, which becomes a non-ideal liquid when the density is above 0.01 g/cm 3. This density is reached at a radius containing 99.9% of Saturn's mass. The temperature, pressure and density inside the planet all rise steadily toward the core, which, in the deeper layers of the planet, cause hydrogen to transition into a metal. Keywords only please. Balance with text.

Saturn has a very hot interior, reaching 11,700 °C at the core, and the planet radiates 2.5 times more energy into space than it receives from the Sun As the droplets descend through the lower density hydrogen, the process releases heat by friction and leaves the outer layers of the planet depleted of helium. Keywords only please.

The outer atmosphere of Saturn contains 96.3% hydrogen and 3.25% helium. The proportion of helium is significantly deficient compared to the abundance of this element in the Sun. The quantity of elements heavier than helium are not known precisely, but the proportions are assumed to match the primordial abundances from the formation of the Solar System. The total mass of these heavier elements is estimated to be 19–31 times the mass of the Earth, with a significant fraction located in Saturn's core region. Keywords only please.

Saturn's atmosphere exhibits a banded pattern similar to Jupiter's, but Saturn's bands are much fainter and are much wider near the equator. The nomenclature used to describe these bands is the same as on Jupiter. Saturn's finer cloud patterns were not observed until the flybys of the Voyager spacecraft during the 1980s. Saturn's usually bland atmosphere occasionally exhibits long-lived ovals and other features common on Jupiter. In 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope imaged an enormous white cloud near Saturn's equator that was not present during the Voyager encounters and in 1994, another, smaller storm was observed. The 1990 storm was an example of a Great White Spot, a unique but short-lived phenomenon that occurs once every Saturnian year, roughly every 30 Earth years, around the time of the northern hemisphere's summer solstice.
