Gotta say the Saturn bit makes this more a comedy of manners than SF: even in the pulpier, planetary-romance-retaining 1930s, Saturn having an earth-like environment was a bit of a stretch[1].

I recall being a bit taken at the notion of moth-antennaed teddy bears from space (this was before the Hoka series ruined that for all time :) )and imagined the unseen enemy the aliens in the "V" series were fighting were philosophical teddy bears (if not from Saturn).

Those Hoka were real nuisances when I was frantically googling, trying to remember the name of the story, let me tell you.
