I don't think you could take the background (Crab) image with Saturn
anywhere near the field due to the intense light "spillover". The trick will
be to get at least a couple stars in the Saturn image to properly
(realistically) register it with the crab image.
One of the lists I am on mentioned that Titan will come close to occulting
the pulsar at the center of the Crab. It misses Earth by a few hundred miles
and thus can only be detected by satellites.
