When I use the gotoSaturn binding, either with a view-button or through a midi controller, I get a switch to skyMode and an overlay with Saturn's dust clouds from Spitzer in stead. I'm using 6.1.1.0 and have tried this on both a windows 10 and a windows 11 (both 64bit)

Thank you for the very clear issue report! It looks like the code that looks up "Saturn" gets confused because this image in our database has exactly that name as well. I think we should be able to fix this with a data update that renames the image. It might make sense to remove the image altogether since it looks like it might not really map onto the sky in a sensible way, anyway.

These were just named "Saturn", causing problems for the `GotoSaturn`
command functionality as reported in
WorldWideTelescope/wwt-windows-client#210. I'm pretty sure that a simple
rename should fix the issue.

The astrometry for the "Infrared Ring Around Saturn" looks to be
ballpark OK -- the top half of the image seems consistent with PS1-3pi,
although with a substantial shift. "Big Band of Dust" doesn't agree
astrometrically and it is mostly non-sky data, so we archive it.
