Like Uranus, it's sometimes called an ice giant because it's so cold. Moby blinks, looks at Tim, and then looks at the night sky. Explain how each is connected to the Solar System topic. TIM: But there are tons of other objects that keep popping up in the far regions of the solar system! TIM: Saturn is another gas giant, with more than 45 moons orbiting it. That's why the inner planets formed mostly out of rocky material.
