The atmosphere is the climate, air or gases surrounding natural objects visible in the sky, such as the earth which is retained by its gravitational field.

Saturn, a natural object, is the sixth planet from the Sun and the second largest planet in the Solar System. It has a ring system that consists of nine continuous main rings and three discontinuous arcs, composed mostly of ice particles with a smaller amount of rocky debris and dust. It has sixty-two known moons which orbit the planet. Since 2004 the Cassini–Huygens joint NASA/ESA/ASI spacecraft mission has been studying the planet Saturn and its many natural satellites.

In the 1960s, Edward Lorenz was seeking to find patterns in long-term meteorological weather patterns. Most of the clouds you see in the sky are found in the troposphere, and this is the layer of the atmosphere we associate with weather. Lorenz used a three-dimensional coordinate system. Plotting moments in phase space, Lorenz discerned a striking pattern in a butterfly-like shape which is called the Lorenz Attractor
