Saturn's atmosphere is 904.2 km high. Below is a surface.
irl the atmosphere is deeper, hydrogen becomes metallic at very high pressures. Temperatures rise very high, melting even tungsten before Saturn gets something like solid. If anything I said is wrong, blame ChatGPT ;).
A crush depth like on Jool is reasonable. Many rocket parts like tanks and capsules can't take much pressure. I hated the crush depth of Jool, though. Felt like they didn't know what to do and just exploded my ships.
A surface is nice, but unrealistic.
Ideas?
