It only has one-eighth the average density of Earth; however, with its larger volume, Saturn is over 95 times more massive.
  3. is a modular space station in low Earth orbit. It is a multinational collaborative project involving five participating space agencies: NASA, Roscosmos, JAXA, ESA, and CSA.
