What constellations does Saturn include?

Saturn is a planet, not a constellation, but the ruler of Capricorn.

Saturn (English Saturn, Latin Saturn) is one of the eight planets in the solar system, with the sixth distance (from near to far) from the sun. The mass and diameter are second only to Jupiter, and they belong to the gas giant planet with Jupiter. In ancient Europe (ancient Greece), Saturn was called Gaia, the mother of the earth. Greek: γ α? English: Gaia (Gaia) was also called revitalization or revival in ancient China.

Saturn is mainly composed of hydrogen, with a small amount of helium and trace elements. Its core includes rocks and ice, and its periphery is surrounded by several layers of metallic hydrogen and gas. Saturn's rings can be seen in the outermost atmosphere, although they sometimes exist for a long time. Saturn's wind speed is as high as 1800 km/h, which is obviously faster than Jupiter's. Saturn's planetary magnetic field strength is between the earth and Jupiter, and the airflow is very fast.

Extended data

Saturn landform environment:

Saturn's surface also has stripes extending along the equator, and its surface is covered by clouds. Through the astronomical telescope, we can see that Saturn's surface also has some alternating stripes parallel to its equatorial plane, and sometimes bright spots, dark spots or white spots appear in the stripes.

The appearance of white spots is not very stable. The most famous white spot was discovered by British astronomer W·T· Hayward in August 1933. It is located in the equatorial region of Saturn, with a length of 65438+ 0.5 of Saturn's diameter. Later, this white spot gradually expanded and almost spread to Saturn's equatorial belt.

Saturn is green near the polar regions, which is the darkest area on the whole surface. According to infrared observation, cloud top temperature is-170℃, which is 50℃ lower than Jupiter. Saturn's surface temperature is about-140℃.
