Transcript
The giant planet Saturn is made almost entirely of liquid and gas. It’s seven hundred and fifty times the volume of earth. But it’s density’s so low, you could throw it in a giant bathtub and it would float!
Saturn’s very different from earth, obviously. Our planet is solid, and so are Mercury, Venus, and Mars. This is a puzzle to secular astronomers. If our solar system formed from a spinning cloud of dust and gas, why do we have both kinds of planets? Other solar systems only have one or the other.
Our solar system has such diversity because God created it that way.
