 There are a number of science fiction works that posit that advanced alien civilizations left puzzles in the solar system for future humans to solve. Examples for this trope are {{w|Pushing Ice}} by Alastair Reynolds and {{w|Rogue Moon}} by Algis Budrys. The Arthur C. Clarke stories {{w|The Sentinel (short story)|The Sentinel}} and {{w|Encounter in the Dawn}} (and the more well-known ''2001: A Space Odyssey'' {{w|2001: A Space Odyssey (novel)|book}} and {{w|2001: A Space Odyssey|film}} treatments that they later helped inspire) each feature various partial treatments of this concept. Caltech Professor David Goodstein also speculated in [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNHd__ed40M&t=1594s The Mechanical Universe] the possibility that {{w|Saturn}} is an alien message system.
