Saturn should be known for being undense enough to float.


I was recently saddened by a response in the thread about the Euclid's first images that HN is not an astronomy forum, and that the audience needs to be explicitly told that a wide angle telescope is different from a wide angle camera lens on your mobile device.

So no, after that reset of expectations, I wouldn't expect Saturn's density to be widely known. Hell, I'm now starting to wonder if we've even reached the point that Saturn's rings might not even be associated with it at all?!?!
