  • saturn feels like it has it's own little solar system.

    as does jupiter.

  • @SodapopSays That's a perceptive and correct observation. if, for example, Titan (moon of Saturn) were in orbit around the Sun, instead of Saturn, we would call it a planet. If Jupiter has been a bit larger (more massive), we would call it a red dwarf or brown dwarf star and we would be said to live in a binary star system. The gravity/tidal forces of both Jupiter and Saturn cause their moons to heat internally. Some have oceans beneath covers of ice. We may possibly find life on these worlds.
