Here's a very interesting bit to find. The length of a Saturnian day is 10 hours & about 39-42 minutes. Maybe this should give a glimpse into the variances of day lengths outside of Earth. Mars, on the other hand, has 25 hour long days.
The length of a day on Mars -- the time it takes Mars to complete a rotation on its axis -- has been known since 1666. It was even accurate to within 3 minutes!
The length of a day on Saturn was a mystery until 2019.
It was extremely difficult to measure for two reasons. First, because without a solid surface, Saturn had no geographical features by which to measure rotational speed. And Saturn has a funky magnetic field that makes alternative ways of measuring hard. Saturn's day was only measured when NASA's Cassini probe studied the planet's icy, rocky rings and their interaction with the planet.
