How come Saturn floats in the water?
Scientist discovered that Planet Saturn can float in the water because it's density is lower than the density of water. The density of Saturn is about 0.69 g/m³ while the density of water is 1 g/m³. According to physicians, if an object is more dense than water it sinks in the water, but if it is less dense than water the object floats on the water - (acs.org). Thus planet Saturn floats on the water as it is less dense than water.
