Moons of Saturn 62 moons discovered 53 officially named Saturn’s moons have icy surfaces
Very cold so that ice is as rigid as rock and craters from meteor impacts
Densities of moon: 1.0 - 1.5 g/cc Largest moon: Titan
The atmosphere has several layers of hazeHas pressure at the surface of 1.6x that of EarthMade up of nitrogen & 1% concentration of
methane.

huge ring-Rings about 1.5 km think

Life on Saturn? Although is has not been proven that
there is life on Saturn, the assumption is likely to be correct for several reasons.Saturn is cold10x the distance from the Sun that Earth isSaturn receives 1/100th (sq. of the distance) as
much energy per unit area.Atmosphere varies from -100 degrees C to
almost -200 degrees C.
