It hadn't really percolated through my brain that I was

It hadn’t really percolated through my brain that I was going to see real, live TV from the surface of the Moon, and boy, oh, boy, had that Saturn V launch been exciting! And then, there it was – late at night, sitting up, watching, and there was Neil Armstrong actually standing on the surface of the Moon.
David Weber
We can’t start over and develop a Saturn 5-type vehicle from scratch.
Buzz Aldrin
Voyager’s passage through Saturn’s inner system exposed diverse moons with dynamic forces at work. Titan, Saturn’s largest moon, whose surface remained invisible through its thick, ubiquitous haze, nonetheless teased observers with hints of a possible ocean of liquid hydrocarbons.
Carolyn Porco
I’ve been a stargazer for quite a long time, I’ve got the apps, I know where a lot of things are in the sky and the apps actually can help just to point out what you are looking at because then you do get to see, ‘Oh that’s Saturn, that’s Mars.’
Phillip Schofield
The inflated imitations of gold and silver, which after the rapture are thrown into the fire, all is exhausted and dissipated by the debt. All scrips and bonds are wiped out. At the fourth pillar dedicated to Saturn, split by earthquake and flood: vexing everyone, an urn of gold is found and then restored.
Nostradamus
The Saturn system is a rich planetary system. It offers mystery, scientific insight, and obviously splendour beyond compare, and the investigation of this system has enormous cosmic reach… just studying the rings alone, we stand to learn a lot about the discs of stars and gas that we call the spiral galaxies.
Carolyn Porco
Saturn is accompanied by a very large and diverse collection of moons. They range in size from a few kilometers across to as big across as the U.S.
Carolyn Porco
Saturn Return is just the return of your planets to their original position.
Billy Corgan
I’ve always liked Saturn. But I also have some sympathy for Pluto because I heard it’s been downgraded from a planet, and I think it should remain a planet. Once you’ve given something planetary status it’s kind of mean to take it away.
Jared Leto
The scientific theory I like best is that the rings of Saturn are composed entirely of lost airline luggage.
Mark Russell
The great earthquake shall be in the month of May; Saturn, Capricorn, Jupiter, Mercury in Taurus; Venus, also Cancer, Mars in zero.
Nostradamus
Titan is Saturn’s largest moon, and, until Cassini had arrived, there was the largest single expanse of unexplored terrain that we had remaining in our solar system.
Carolyn Porco
I don’t think Brian Cox does ‘The Wonders of the Solar System’ because he believes the world would be a better place if people understood about the rings of Saturn; I just think he finds physics extremely interesting. It brings him joy, and he wants to spread the love. I feel the same about economics.
Tim Harford
Saturn itself is a giant planet, and there’s much to be gained by investigating its meteorology and studying its magnetic field.
Carolyn Porco
Voyager found Saturn to be a planet with a complex interior, atmosphere, and magnetosphere. In its rings – a vast, gleaming disk of icy rubble – the mission recorded signs of the same physical mechanisms that were key in configuring the early solar system and similar disks of material around other stars.
Carolyn Porco
Every type of ring behavior we have seen around Jupiter, Uranus, or Neptune can be found in orbit around Saturn. And Saturn’s ring system offers the greatest promise of understanding processes in operation within all disk systems, not just those found around planets.
Carolyn Porco
I’ve got my Peabody and my Saturn awards right next to each other on my mantle, and that is about it, and that is all that matters.
Katee Sackhoff
As you go further from the sun, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus are each colder in their upper atmosphere. But when you get to Neptune, it’s just as warm as Uranus.
Heidi Hammel
On the technical side, Apollo 8 was mainly a test flight for the Saturn V and the Apollo spacecraft. The main spacecraft system that needed testing on a real lunar flight was the onboard navigation system.
Henry Spencer
When I was 18 years old, in a more innocent time, my first backpacking trip through Europe, I sneaked into the Temple of Saturn in the Roman Forum after nightfall and spent several hours in there avoiding the guards patrolling.
Guy Gavriel Kay
For me, it was my first cosmic connection, on par with a first kiss. No other planet looks as unworldly or surreal as Saturn. When you see it floating in the eyepiece of your telescope, you feel as if you’ve uncovered mystery in the cosmos.
Carolyn Porco
I was, I remember, I still remember when the first time I pointed the telescope at the sky and I saw Saturn with the rings. It was a beautiful image.
Umberto Guidoni
Saturn seems to have impressed the seal of melancholy on me from the beginning.
Marsilio Ficino
The questions that we scientist have about Saturn’s rings are the questions that an ordinary person might be moved to ask when first seeing them, you know. What caused them? How did they get there? How long have they been around? How long are they going to last?
Carolyn Porco
The astrologers and historians write that the ascendant as of Oxford is Capricornus, whose lord is Saturn, a religious planet, and patron of religious men.
John Aubrey
