   Why is Saturn coming to opposition?

   • Saturn is coming to opposition, the time when Earth is directly between the Sun and the planet. From our position on Earth, Saturn seems to be 180 degrees from the Sun—so when the Sun sets in the west, the planet rises in the east. The ringed planet is also at its closest distance to Earth, about 814 million miles, during this time.

   How often does Saturn come to opposition?

   • As a matter of fact, Saturn comes to opposition nearly every earthly year. A year is the length of time Earth takes to travel once around the sun. But Saturn’s orbit around the sun takes 29.4 Earth years. So each year we have to travel slightly farther in orbit to catch up to, and pass, Saturn again.
