Saturn - Science@NASA This color image of Saturn was taken with the HST's Wide Field and Planetary Camera (WF PC) in the wide field mode at 8:25 A M EDT, August 26, 1990, when the planet was at a distance of 1 39 billion kilometers (860 million miles) from Earth The color in the image is
The Slant on Saturn’s Rings - Science@NASA This is a series of images of Saturn, as seen at many different wavelengths, when the planet's rings were at their maximum tilt of 27 degrees toward Earth
Saturn Facts - Science@NASA Like fellow gas giant Jupiter, Saturn is a massive ball made mostly of hydrogen and helium Saturn is not the only planet to have rings, but none are as spectacular or as complex as Saturn's Saturn also has dozens of moons

Saturn Exploration - Science@NASA Significant Events ~700 BCE: The oldest written records documenting Saturn are attributed to the Assyrians They described the ringed planet as a sparkle in the night and named it "Star of Ninib " ~400 BCE: Ancient Greek astronomers name what they think is a wandering star in honor of Kronos, the god of agriculture The Romans later change the name to Saturn, their god of agriculture
Saturn - Science@NASA Hubble’s new look at Saturn on September 12 shows rapid and extreme color changes of the bands in the planet’s northern hemisphere, where it is now early autumn The bands have varied throughout Hubble observations in both 2019 and 2020 Notably, Saturn’s iconic hexagonal storm,
Saturn and Titan Resources - NASA Science Titan's dense atmosphere shrouds the moon beneath a tan haze in this image Dione, another one of Saturn's many moons, can be seen through the Titan haze in this view of the two posing before the planet and its rings
Cassini: Saturns Magnetosphere - Science@NASA Saturn's magnetic field has north and south poles, like those on a bar magnet, and the field rotates with the planet On Jupiter and Earth, the magnetic fields are slightly tilted with respect to the from the planets' rotation axes – this tilt is the reason we say compass needles point to "magnetic north" rather than true north
Hubble Sees Summertime on Saturn - NASA Science Saturn is truly the lord of the rings in this latest snapshot from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, taken on July 4, 2020, when the opulent giant world was 839
Evolution of Saturn’s Ring Tilt (2018-2024) - Science@NASA This is a series of Hubble Space Telescope images of the planet Saturn taken from 2018 to 2024 This sequence shows how the tilt of the magnificent ring system changes relative to the view from Earth, as Saturn orbits the Sun Approximately every 15 years the relatively paper-thin rings (about one mile thick) can be seen edge-on
