OK “Rock” is stretching it a bit for this one, but there really is something solid under all the gas.

If the Sun were the same size as the Sunsphere and located in the same place, the planet Saturn would orbit through Campbell Station Park in Farragut. Its orbit would have a mean radius of about 14.7 miles, which as the crow flies, is approximately how far your are from the Sunsphere in this park. The real Saturn orbits at an mean distance of 8.87E+08 miles from the Sun.

Campbell Station Park has about a mile of trails that surround the Farragut branch Knox County Library at 405 Campbell Station Road.

Since Saturn is the sixth planet, six will be your guide despite some OUT OF LINE attempts to make it eight or seven. Start at the Gazebo. Walk down the grassy hill toward the Bridge. Get on the paved path and cross the Bridge. Head west on the path up the hill. Pass Florida. You could walk your DOG in this WOOD. Continue on the path.

Pass Six C. Canadensis all in one line your left. Ignore the two upstarts behind them—Their impertinence may make your faceE RED, BUD!

Soon you will come to Six Large Rocks all in a line on your right. A woodchip path begins directly in front of them. (There is a 7th smaller rock out of the line; again ignore this upstart!).

Go to the largest and holeyest of the six. Behind it on the Southeast side you will find three little rocks sheltering in its greatness. Under these little ones you may discover why a few of Saturn’s little rocks might harbor life.

Do not go after this if people are watching and please makes sure it is rehidden well under all its rocks and leaves.

The park has a picnic shelter, restrooms and a playground. If anyone tries to turn you in to a bronze statue, run!
