The planets that are in the white boxes are the two gas giants. Take a really good at the solar system!

3. Did you know that since May 4th, we only know that Saturn has 46 moons. And Jupiter has 63 moons.
Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second largest planet after Jupiter.
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the sun and the largest planet within the solar system.
The solar system goes from Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

4. Saturn is named after the Roman god Saturnus (that became the namesake of Saturday), equated to the Greek Kronos(the titan father of Zeus) and the Babylonian Ninurta. Saturn's symbol represents the god's sickle.
Jupiter was known by astronomers of ancient times and was associated with the mythology and religious beliefs of many cultures. The Romans named the planet after the Roman god Jupiter.

5. Gas Giants Table

6. Jupiter is one of the four gas giants; that is, it is not primarily composed of solid matter. It is the largest planet in the Solar System, having a diameter of 142,984 km at its equator. Jupiter's density is 1.326 g/cm³, is the second highest of the gas giant planets, but lower than any of the four terrestrial planets.

7. Though there is little direct information about Saturn's internal structure, its thought that its interior is similar to that of Jupiter, having a small rocky core surrounded mostly by hydrogen and helium. The rocky core is similar in composition to the earth, but denser. Above this, there is a thicker liquid metallic hydrogen layer, followed by a layer of liquid hydrogen and helium, and in the outermost 1000 km a gaseous atmosphere.

8. Saturn has a very hot interior, reaching 11 700 °C at the core, and it radiates 2.5 times more energy into space than it receives from the Sun. Most of the extra energy is generated by the Kelvin-Helmholtz mechanism (slow gravitational compression).
