- Now, move a camera off of the
- Earth and place it only 13
- million miles away from Saturn
- and this is the view you get.
-
- Note that the cloud bands are
- not nearly as prominent as
- those on Jupiter due to the
- smaller size, lower internal
- temperatures and further
- distance from the sun. Saturn's
- atmosphere is similar to Jupiter's
- containing large amounts
- of methane and ammonia.
