Which planet can float on water ??

The planet is SATURN   !!!

 It is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second largest in solar system.

Despite its size, it has low density than other planets and its density is lesser than water and hence floats.

High pressure of Saturn 's atmosphere turns methane gas into soot which hardens into graphite and then to diamond and fall toward the core  !!!

A permanent six sided storm is found on northern pole.

Saturn is slowly "  eating " its rings means they are falling into core  and could be gone in 100 million years.
