6th Planet from the Sun
I give you Saturn, the 2nd largest planet in our solar system, 11 times the size of earth, made mostly of hydrogen and helium, the rings are 137,000 miles in diameter and if my hand didn't wobble when I took this picture you might be able to make them out, they were first discovered in 1610.
A day on saturn lasts 10 hours 39 minutes.
It's 980 million miles from the sun, thats about 10 times the distance you are.
This is it through a £200 telescope.
I shall get a better picture, the camera wouldn't charged tonight.
