Saturn

Sixth from Sol

Saturn is the sixth planet from the Sun, distinguished by its prominent ring system visible through small telescopes.

In Roman mythology, Saturn was the god of agriculture and time, equivalent to the Greek Cronus.

The planet lends its name to Saturday.

Someone with a saturnine temperament is gloomy or sluggish—associated with the planet's slow orbit and the god's melancholy influence in astrology.
