Hardly an human definition of summer.

Summer on Saturn’s northern hemisphere. This is a good time to view Saturn’s rings. Saturn is near opposition, with the earth between Saturn and the sun, and the rings are tilted towards the earth. The solstice on Saturn was on May 24th, 2017. Since Saturn’s orbit is 29.5 times as long as earths, the season on Saturn is like late July on earth.
