Saturn

Saturn is an oblate spheroid, i.e. it is flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator; its equatorial and polar diameters vary by almost 10% (120,536 km vs. 108,728 km). This is the result of its rapid rotation and fluid state. The other gas planets are also oblate, but to a lesser degree. Saturn is the only one of the Solar System's planets that is less dense than water, with an average specific density of 0.69. This is a mean value; Saturn's upper atmosphere is less dense and its core is considerably more dense than water.

Saturn meets that standards, however the project is Saturn is chilly as all get out and could freeze any water you tried to drift it upon in a heartbeat. I chuckled on the old chestnut reaction approximately leaving a ring around the tub. Har, Har. There are "real" people obtainable in spite of each little thing. jogs my memory of the feller that asked as quickly as we've been going to deliver a Lunar Lander to Saturn....Heh, Heh, Heh, in basic terms somewhat detour, precise?
