From Monna,thank you:)

Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second largest planet in the Solar system, after Jupiter. Saturn, along with Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune, is classified as a gas giant. Together, these four planets are sometimes referred to as the Jovian, meaning "Jupiter-like", planets.

Saturn is named after the Roman god Saturnus.
