I hope that I got the planets right, but i still dont quite understand as to why they were allocated like that. If someone could explain it, it would be very appreciated :3

Not that people could discern Uranus and Neptune based on those pictures without finding those exact ones in their respective Wikipedia entries...

Neptune more blue

[-] sga@piefed.social 5 points 2 months ago

sorry to break it to you chief, but in reality, neptune is not darker blue, i learnt it recently, but the darker color comes from some magazine print which got very popularised. from the images, the look basically same.

Neptune's great dark spot is clearly visible, and thus immediately identifies it as such.

Vibe based astronomy already exists - it's astrology!

My bf left me because his astrologist said we weren't aligned.

I dunno, I think this arrangement may match their vibes a bit better.

Based on vibes, earth and moon should swap places

The moon isn't in this image. You're looking at mercury. Easiest way to tell is the lack of the lunar maria.

I can't even distinguish them from one another if they're not brightly coloured cartoon depictions of the planets... Let's see..

    1. Ve- no, mars. 2. pluto. 3. Mercury
    1. Jupiter 5. Uranus - but 7 looks more Uranus so 5 must be Neptune? 6. That's Earth
    1. Uranus 8. Satrn 9. Venus
