The narrative follows the adventures of a prospector, Homer Timkin, as he searches for treasures within the rings of Saturn, facing the perils of space as well as the challenges of his own desperation and competition in a lawless frontier. The story explores themes of fortune, survival, and moral dilemmas in an uncharted and dangerous space environment. The plot centers on Timkin's arduous quest to find valuable materials among the debris of Saturn's rings, which are rumored to hold immense treasures. After a fruitless search, he finally discovers a significant lump of gold but quickly faces a dire confrontation with another prospector, Huck Larsoe, who attempts to steal his find. The tension builds as Timkin grapples with the loss of his fortune, only to discover that a seemingly inconsequential stone he had retrieved in the process holds profound historical significance. Ultimately, Timkin's fortunes shift dramatically when the stone brings him unexpected fame and wealth, revealing the twists of luck and the moral implications of their actions in the vastness of space.
