  1. Solar SYSTEM/ MATH ILPSATURN By Sydney Spear Grade: 3 Teacher: Mrs. Milligan

  2. SIZE of Saturn • Saturn’s size is 75,000 miles wide. • Saturn’s mass is 95 times that of Earth.

  3. Distance from the sun • 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.

  5. Atmosphere / landscape • Saturn is a big ball of gas (gas giant). It has a rock core, gaseous outside that is kept in place by gravity, and has rings made of dusty ice chunks.

  6. Neighboring planets • Saturn’s neighbors are Jupiter and Uranus.

  7. Day length • A day on Earth is 24 hours. • A day on Saturn is 10 hours 39 minutes.

  8. Year length • Saturn’s year length is 29 earth years.

  9. How many moons? • So far, 62 moons have been discovered in orbits around Saturn, and 53 of them have been officially named.

  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 = 21.28 pounds • Venus: 56 x 0.91 = 50.96 pounds • Mars: 56 x 0.38 = 21.28 pounds • Jupiter: 56 x 2.54 =142.24 pounds • Saturn: 56 x 1.08 = 60.48 pounds • Uranus: 56 x 0.91 = 50.96 pounds • Neptune: 56 x 1.19 = 66.64 pounds

  13. My weight on other planets

  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”.

  15. MORE INTERESTING facts • GAS GIANT • NO SOLID SURFACE • UNBELIEVABLE LIGHTS • NO LIVING LIFE • MOST VISIBLE • 10 TIMES WIDER THAN EARTH • TURNS CLOCKWISE SLOWLY • SATURDAY IS NAMED AFTER SATURN • THE SYMBOL FOR SATURN IS THE SICKLE • THE RINGS ARE BRIGHTER THAN SATURN ITSELF
