The article says:

   And these elements are linked to astronomical (solar system) objects:
   * copper – Venus
   * gold – Sun
   * iron – Mars
   * lead – Saturn
   * mercury – Mercury
   * silver – Moon
   * tin – Jupiter

What's that about? I don't understand the corelation between these things besides perhaps the pipedreams of Nick Kollerstrom. The history of the God Jupiter and it's depiction using Tin is hardly relevant to the naming of the element Tin. Is there a shred of scientific evidence out there that could be cited in the article to help explain the relevance of this portion? - Baribeau 00:49, 27 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

It's a traditional alchemical association. But it has nothing to do with the subject of the page, so I took it out. -- Dominus 16:40, 27 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

What about Ti and the Saturn moon titan ? 193.157.242.154 (talk) 09:16, 18 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

They're both named after the titans. Thanks for the suggestion, though. —Dominus (talk) 17:27, 18 December 2009 (UTC)Reply
