Saturns Clouds

[alderite]

you know saturn has no solid substances it is only contains of any gases

[Replicatorz]

@alderite Actually your wrong heh, it's core is of rock and ice, but then like jupiter has a ocean of gas covering it so no way we could ever see it to confirm it does have a rock/ice core to it. Think about all the comets and asteroids both saturn and jupiter pick up, them rocks gotta go someplace don't they? May break up in a million pieces but they all go to same place.

@Replicatorz Also, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune started out as rocky planets like Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars or icy rocky like Pluto, Eries, Makemake, ext. They formed fast enough that left over gases after our star formed have not drifted off so therefore it was swept up by their gravity which produced such a dense and high as hell atmosphere that we call them gas giants.

[EarthianLifeForm]

@Replicatorz You may have heard of planets discovered orbiting other stars called "Super Earths" some as big as 5 times the size of Earth. It is believed by many that they could have been like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune' rocky core but didn't become gas giants because the left over gases after their star formed escaped before these giant terrestrial and icy rocky planets had grown big enough to begin capturing the gases

[Replicatorz]

@EarthianLifeForm Thank you for this, yeah i think jupiter and the planets after it just have a overgrown atmosphere is all which is basically what your saying. One question i do have is, why are the planets before jupiter small, and after mars they all go super big? Gravity/Temperature/ or something else? I have seen vids of them super earths your referring to, but can the sun actually be responsible for trimming out the atmosphere of a planet, and as farther you go the bigger the atmosphere?

[EarthianLifeForm]

@Replicatorz That's a good question. Temperature can't be the reason because we have discovered gas giants orbiting other stars that are much closer to their star. Their sometimes called hot Saturns or hot Uranuses depending on which of our gas giants it's most like. I read about a hot Saturn that orbits close enough to it's star that temperatures reach over 3,000 F degrees. Gravity can't be the reason because Uranus has about 10% less gravity than Earth and it still became a gas giant.

[Replicatorz]

@EarthianLifeForm I was watching one video where it was talking about that hot saturn your talking about, and he states how long will it take for it to be down to a shriveled core. One planet was so close to it's sun it had a vapor trail behind it, so maybe it can take millenniums for bigger planets that close to the sun to actually shrink it's atmosphere. Only reason Venus is able to keep it's atmosphere is because of it's thick coat which keeps heat in. And earth is just in the perfect spot.

[Replicatorz]

@EarthianLifeForm Even mercury is said to have a very very thin atmosphere on it which could of been bigger millions of years ago.

LOL

As I always say this was just for fun and not supposed to depict Saturn's no existent surface but the cloud system...

Mmm I say none existent but that's not entirely true.

The interior consists of a small core of rock and ice, surrounded by a thick layer of metallic hydrogen and a gaseous outer layers

[AirelonTrading]

However the rock / ice interior is so far down, it wouldn't appear as rock and ice with a gaseous atmosphere above it.

The rock / ice surface is more akin to the rock at the bottom of the ocean. That's probably the closest "earth" analogy. The very top surface would appear more as a liquid under intense insane pressures. That liquid would increase it's pressure until the pressures themselves approach hard / "molten" water levels. The ice / rock levels would then be underneath that.

lol

[errorcode123654]

ooooooooooo, but your right about it being a moon

[errorcode123654]

hey, rebel bull,in fact every gas giant has a surface. because in the center of a gas giant the pressure is so great that the gas solidifies ... ... ... ... but i forgive you for beliving every thing your told. :)

[Stargazerslounge]

Thanks for the interest folks, this was a mere test and the Science behind it is more fantasy than anything. Having said that ya never know what we may find one day ;)

[Strogenforcer]

Did you know that in the atmosphere of Saturn there are winds of 1800 km/h and temperatures as low as -151 celsius.

[fritsz]

did you know that saturn is so clear, that if there was a pool large enough to hold saturn, it would float.

so the winds that are moving fast have VERY little force.

[RJL738]

This is probibly one of it's moons as most of saturn (accept for a proportionaly small core still bigger than the Earth and some liquid surounding it) is just raging gas storms. Interesting though

[theRebelBull]

Saturn is a gas giant. It has no surface. That would probably be Titan, Saturns largest moon.

[WolYou]

Right, the rebel. Saturn is a gas planet.

[dbsti300]

Cool vid. Don't think Saturn is terrestrial.

[Loki676]

Is that what Saturn looks like? Cool!
