Would the planet Saturn really float?
The gasses wouldn’t even make it to the water – they’d be incorporated into the atmosphere of the mega planet that had the ocean… Wait, no… a planet that massive would have HUGE atmospheric pressure on its surface (function of gravity). The pressure would keep water in its solid form, and keep you from floating anything in it. Now things get interesting… the oceans on such a planet would be made up of compounds we normally think of as gases… It isn’t unreasonable to think that helium on such a planet would be the primary component of the ocean, and that Saturn would, after being sucked into the planet’s extraordinary gravity, become part of the ocean in liquid form.
