Saturn is the sixth planet from Sol and the second-largest in the Sol System, after Jupiter. It is a gas giant with an average radius of about nine and a half times that of Earth. Saturn is a major trading port in the Sol system, being home to the largest gas mining stations in the Orion Arm. Along with its moons, it was first settled in the 2080s, primarily for mining purposes.
