The pressure is not enough to become a star on hydrogen. But the pressure is enough to convert hydrogen into liquid metallic hydrogen. The liquid metallic hydrogen drive to generate strong magnetic field. The distance between Saturn and the Sun is 1.434 billion kilometers. The Saturn requires 29 years to complete one orbit around the sun. The Saturn second largest planet in our solar system. ...
