Surrounded by many dazzling rings, Saturn is the most beautiful planet in the Solar System. It is the second largest planet, sixth from the Sun and the second fastest rotating planet. Its year is roughly 29 1/2 Earth years long. Also, Saturn has the largest moon system out of any planet, at least 20.

Jul 15 Word of the Day
The safeguarding of Earth and other worlds from biological cross-contamination (i.e. billionaires with too much time on their hands).

Also known as “planetary protection.” Planetary protection / quarantine “reflects both the unknown nature of the space environment and the desire of the scientific community to preserve the pristine nature of celestial bodies until they can be studied in detail.”

There are two types of interplanetary contamination. Forward contamination is the transfer of viable organisms from Earth to another celestial body. Back contamination is the transfer of extraterrestrial organisms, if such exist, back to the Earth's biosphere.
Billionaires are having a dick swinging space race while the earth experiences record breaking heatwaves that cause sea creatures to literally cook inside their shells. We need planetary quarantine.

1. A great gaming console by Sega. Released just before the Playstation and Nintendo 64, it started out with mainly 2D games but proved to be well suited for 3D gaming.

2. The sixth planet from the Sun in Earth's solar system. Has an amazing set of rings that are thousands of miles wide.

3. A car brand. Sometimes disparagingly known as the "Redneck's Honda"

4. One of the main characters in the manga/anime Sailor Moon. Unlike most characters she is quiet and submissive.
1. -Sega Saturn is the greatest console ever!
-Pfft. Maybe if you like playing nonstop fighting games and seeing everything rendered in squares.

2. -Dude look out the window in the direction of the library, you can see Saturn in the sky!
-No dice.

3. -Why don't you own a Saturn?
-Well, why don't you own a pony?

4. -Man I just got the urge to watch me some Sailor Moon right now. Saturn is my favorite character.
-I'll get the nachos!

Fifth movement in Holst's "The Planets" entitled "Saturn, the Bringer of Old Age." This, in fact, was Holst's favorite movement. The longest movement in the suite, lasting about 9 1/2 minutes.
The best movement of "The Planets" is Saturn.

1. Sixth planet from the Sun and second largest in the system. The outermost planet known in classical times. 764 times Earth's volume, 94 times its mass. Orbits once in nearly 30 Earth years at a distance of roughly 925 million miles. Gravity at cloud decks averages about 1.16 times that on Earth. The least dense planet in the system, overall density roughly .687 times that of water. Diameter 74,898 miles through the equator, give or take five miles; 67,560 miles through the poles, give or take 13 miles. Average temperature at visible cloud decks is about 185 degrees Centigrade below zero. Atmosphere is mostly hydrogen with some helium and traces of other elements, similar but not identical to that of Jupiter. Cloud patterns appear more subdued than on Jupiter, due at least in part to an upper layer of haze. Best known for its bright and extensive ring system, consisting of countless trillions of blocks of (mainly) water ice. Most of the ring system is within a diameter of 225,000 miles or so, but is only a few hundred feet thick; scaled down to the size of a city, the rings would be as thick as a sheet of newsprint. Saturn has a retinue of major satellites comparable to those around Jupiter; only one of them, Titan, is particularly large. The latter is an intriguing body recently imaged by the Cassini Probe and visited by the Huygens Lander, and the only moon in the solar system with an appreciable atmosphere.

2. Roman god of time and farming, equivalent to the Greek Kronos. Best known for his feeling of unease at the possibility that his sons would outdo him, which he assuaged in the most efficient way possible; by eating them. One of them, however, escaped. His name was Jupiter, and the rest, as they say, is mythology.

3. The family of rockets used in the Apollo mission that (Uncle Sam, take a bow) landed humans on the Moon.
Saturn is often referred to as the Lord of the Rings.
