Density Of Saturn
SPECIFIC GRAVITY
The Floating Giant
Saturn is the only planet in the solar system that is less dense than water. If you had a bathtub big enough, Saturn would float in it.
Lower than water (1.0 g/cm³).
In a theoretical cosmic ocean.

SPECIFIC GRAVITY
Saturn's mean density is **0.687 g/cm³**. Since pure water is **1.0 g/cm³**, Saturn would float in a sufficiently large ocean.
PLANETARY STATSCOMPOSITION RATIO
Over 96% of the planet's volume is Hydrogen. The low density is a result of these light elements being held in a gaseous/liquid state.
ELEMENTAL DATARADIAL GRADIENT
While the atmosphere is very thin, the core is likely very dense (solid rock/metal). The *average* is pulled down by the massive gas envelope.
