Behind the poster
About Saturn.
Saturn’s rings are almost entirely water ice, in pieces from grains of dust to chunks as big as a house. The main rings stretch about 273,000 km (170,000 mi) from edge to edge, yet they are typically only about 10 meters (30 feet) thick. Read more in Saturn’s rings are thinner than a sheet of paper.
The planet itself is a giant of hydrogen and helium, so light for its size that its average density is less than water’s. Its day was the hardest of any planet’s to time, because there is no solid surface to watch. In 2019 scientists finally measured it from waves in the rings recorded by NASA’s Cassini spacecraft: 10 hours and 34 minutes.
Across its 29-year orbit, Saturn shows us its rings at a changing angle. They turned edge-on to Earth in March 2025 and are now slowly opening again, toward their widest view around 2032. See our guide to Saturn and the Moon for how to find it.
