Saturn’s distance from the sun is 888 million miles.

4. weather Saturn is so cold people could not breathe or live on Saturn.
It can get to -285 degrees Fahrenheit.
There are 1000 mile per hour wind speeds on Saturn.
Storms on Saturn can last months or even years.

10. Comparing Number of moons

11. comparing my weight on earth to my weight on other planets
If you were on other planets, you would weigh a different amount than you do on Earth. The weight that you feel depends on many things, including your actual mass, the mass of the planet you're on, and how far away you are from the center of that planet.
To see what I weighed on other planets I had to multiply my weight of 56 pounds on Earth by the gravitational pull or gravitation factor relative to Earth of other planets.

12. My weight on other planets
Mercury: 56 x 0.38 = pounds
Venus: 56 x 0.91 = pounds
Mars: 56 x 0.38 = pounds
Jupiter: 56 x 2.54 = pounds
Saturn: 56 x 1.08 = pounds
Uranus: 56 x 0.91 = pounds
Neptune: 56 x 1.19 = pounds

14. Why is the planet interesting?
I think Saturn is interesting because it has fascinating rings and because it is the second largest planet in the solar system. I also like that its nickname is “the jewel of the solar system”.
