In light of the new hexagon on Saturn, anybody ever read "Saturn Alia"?
by Grant D. Callin

It's the story of a hexagonal manufactured object found on one of Saturn's moons, leading to a search for the other five parts of the puzzle. The object is done in multiples of 6, because Saturn is the 6th planet in the system.

It was a facinating short story, and I was wondering if anybody has read it. As soon as I saw the picture of the hexagon on Saturn, I thought of this short story.

1. No but how about has anyone read
The "Well World" series by Jack L. Chalker where hexagon shaped gateways transport people to an ancient world divided up into hexagon shaped 'nations' or biomes would probably be a better description. And on this world there are giant hexagon shapes at the north and south poles.

lol

It's pretty cheesy but they were among the first SF novels I read before I discovered the classics and master authors like RAH and Asimov etc...
