Summary Saturn is easily recognized by its large rings, which can be seen from Earth with a telescope. These rings look solid but are actually clouds of ice and dust. They orbit the planet the way Saturn orbits the sun. However, readers discover these rings are not the only interesting thing about this gas giant. Through informative text that supports current science curriculum requirements, as well as stunning photographs and detailed diagrams, readers learn fun facts about our solar system's second-largest planet. Detailed table of contents, diagrams, full-color photographs, further information section, glossary, index and websites.
