Literature
In Voltaire's Micromégas (1752), the eponymous hero arrives at Saturn first (Uranus and Neptune were unknown then). Saturn's citizens are « only a thousand fathoms high », have 72 senses and live for about 15,000 years. Micromégas forms a close friendship with the secretary of the Academy of Saturn, who accompanies him to Earth.;
The unwitting adventurers in Jules Verne's Off on a Comet (1877) pass within 415,000,000 miles of Saturn while riding on a comet. The book describes Saturn as having 8 satellites and 3 rings. It contains a black and white illustration showing what night might look like from the surface of the planet. The rings are brightly illuminated by the sun, and an elliptical shadow is cast on them by the planet. The drawing shows the surface of Saturn as a rocky, desolate, solid surface.;
In H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos, Saturn was known as Cykranosh in the Hyperborean Era, both Tsathoggua and Atlach-Nacha came to Earth from there, and Tsathoggua's paternal uncle Hziulquoigmnzhah still resides there.;
In Isaac Asimov's short story The Martian Way (1952), Martian colonists use a chunk of ice from Saturn's rings to bring water to the dry world.;
Kurt Vonnegut's novel The Sirens of Titan (1959) is partly set on Titan, Saturn's best known moon.;
In Robert A. Heinlein's work:
In the novel The Puppet Masters, Earth is invaded by terrifying parasites who can attach themelves to a human and completely control him or her. They turn out to come from Titan, where they had already enslaved an elf-like species native to that moon. (It is never revealed whether the parasites were also native to Titan or came from further away, humans call them "Titans" anyway - and not for their size). By the end of the book, the invasion of Earth had been repelled and the United States sends a space warship on a 12 year voyage with its mission to sow death and destruction on Titan and emancipate its enslaved "elves".;
In the novel The Rolling Stones the family Stone heads for Titan Base, a colony.;
In the novel Podkayne of Mars mentioned (probably a penal colony, context is not clear).;
;
In Arthur C. Clarke's novel version of 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), a spacecraft visits the Saturnian system. When the film version targeted the same spacecraft to Jupiter, the travel to Saturn was retconned to match in the sequel novel 2010: Odyssey Two (1982). Clarke's unrelated novel Imperial Earth (1976) takes place partially at a human colony on Titan.;
In the sixth book of the Yoko Tsuno comic book series (Les Trois soleils de Vinéa, 1976), a small part of the action takes place on a Vinean space station in orbit around Saturn. Saturn's moon Titan is also briefly mentioned and depicted. Other Saturnian moons are visible but not named.;
Warhammer 40,000's universe (1987) places the headquarters of the Grey Knights of the Ordo Malleus in Saturn's moons, owing to their defensive capability.;
Stephen Baxter's novel Titan (1997) is focused on the moon Titan, but contains vivid depictions of a journey through the Saturnian system.;
In Michael McCollum's novel The Clouds of Saturn (1998), Saturn is a new place for humanity after Earth was heavily boiled by the flaring sun.;
Ben Bova's novel Saturn (2003) is about a spacecraft traveling toward the planet, although Saturn itself does not figure greatly in the story.;
In Charles Stross's Accelerando humans colonise Saturn's upper atmosphere as the inner planets are dismantled into a Matrioshka Brain;
