Saturn is a name of a user interface in Nag Axiom. This interface
(or at least part of it) were used in Windows version.

Is it a trick question? Souce code mention Saturn many times
without saying what it is. One can deduce that it has something
to do with user interface and that it is probably a Windows thing,
for example in patches.lisp we had:
;; browser stuff:
#+:UNIX (defvar |$standard| 't)
#-:UNIX (defvar |$standard| 'nil)
#+:UNIX (defvar |$saturn| 'nil)
#-:UNIX (defvar |$saturn| 't)
But to find out more (and what I wrote is almost all that I know
about Saturn) you need to read this mailing list (Saturn were
mentioned few times during user interface discussions).
