What If You Jumped Into Saturn?
Saturn is famous for its magnificent rings. But did you know other gas planets like Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune also have rings? Saturn's are just the largest and most visible. Saturn radiates twice as much energy into space than it receives from the Sun. And that means it must have an internal heat source. Do we know what it is? Absolutely not. Well, today we're sending Chase to find out!
