The largest planet of the solar system is Jupiter. It is the largest by mass, volume, and surface area among other statistics. Here are the critical measurements of Jupiter as well as a few other interesting facts about the planet.
Here are Jupiter's measurements: mass $1.8981 \times 10^{27}\ kg$, volume $1.43128 \times 10^{15}\ km^{3}$, surface area $6.1419 \times 10^{10}\ km^{2}$, and a mean circumference of $4.39264 \times 10^{5}\ km$. Despite its size, it only has a density of $1.326\ g/cm^3$, which is less than one fourth of Earths density. The low density is one way scientists are able to determine that it is made mostly of gases and probably does not have a solid core.

Jupiter is the biggest planet.

In 1610, the year after Galileo Galilei first turned a telescope to the sky, he became the very first person to observe Saturn's rings, though he could not see them well enough to discern their true nature. In 1655, Christiaan Huygens was the first person to describe them as a disk surrounding Saturn.
