Hasn't the premise been set that the Saitama really can't be challenged? No attack yet has actually done anything to him. He got blasted to the moon with no ill effects. His speed changes with whoever he is fighting at the time, and his strength appears to be limitless. I guess if they take him to space he dies since he can't breathe.

You're focusing too much on the trope. It's a gag series, where a planet level character was essentially dropped into an entire world of street-level characters, and a few high tiers that couldn't even take on the likes of Boros(planetary, at best).
It's widely accepted that Boros was the strongest character other than Saitama, thus far- and even he was only capable of destroying the surface of Earth, with his strongest attack- in his strongest form.
It's very similar to how Superman would be, if there were no other super-beings in his series.
We go by feats here, and based on feats- Saitama would stop at #2.

So wait and see I guess since they haven't even hinted at the limits of his power yet
We’ve seen him get “super serious”. At that point, he was capable of overpowering a planet razing attack from Boros. This makes Saitama roughly a planet level character, which is honestly even a stretch, based on that feat. There is, afterall, a HUGE difference between planet razing and planet BUSTING.
Even if we were to assume that attack was only 1% of his power(which wouldn’t make sense, considering he himself called it “Super Serious”), that would barely make him a planet buster at full strength.
Of course any of this can change, but saying “wait and see”, is sheer childishness, and in outright denial of the fact that based on what we’ve seen- Saitama can’t compete with anything above an average Kryptonian.

Superman has no limits either though.
