If you had a giant swimming pool and put Saturn in it, it would float! Exactly, the ringed giant of the solar system has a density of 0.69 grams per cubic centimeter.

By comparison, water has a density of 1 gram per cubic centimeter. That way, being less dense, the planet would be able to float!

Jupiter, on the other hand, would sink. Its density is higher: 1.33 grams per cubic centimeter
