There is a variable $saturn. And the word "saturn" appears quite a lot
in fricas. Does anyone know its meaning and perhaps some history of it?

In bookvol5.pamphlet it says:
The [[*features*]] variable from common lisp is tested for the presence
of the [[:unix]] keyword. Apparently this controls the use of Saturn,
a previous Axiom frontend. The Saturn frontend was never released as
open source and so this test and the associated variables are probably
not used.
In br-saturn.boot (was b-saturn.boot) it says:
--These will be set in patches.lisp:
--$saturn := false --true to write SATURN output to $browserOutputStream
--$standard:= true --true to write browser output on AIX
