The Main Solar System Planets (along with certain Moons)
You can't forget Pluto, too!
I drew these months ago, around October. I even drew other Dwarf Planets and asteroids in the system, but I can only upload 10 pictures at a time. Don't worry though, I'll be uploading them here soon!
I put a bit of my own personal spins to the designs here, like how I personally see Venus as more masculine as the morning star. So my version of Venus is a trans man and, in turn, Mars is a trans woman. I also see Jupiter and Saturn as brothers, as well.
I have a lot to say, but I don't want to bog down this post already, so feel free to ask me any questions.
Lich and their Planets (PSR B1257+12 system)
The Pulsar, Lich, along with their planets, Draugr, Poltergeist, and Phobetor, are located 2,300 light-years away from the Sun in the Virgo Constellation. Lich was discovered on February 9, 1990, Poltergeist and Phobetor on January 22, 1992, and Draugr on April 22, 1994.
Poltergeist, Draugr, and Phobetor were one of the first exoplanets discovered, while Lich was the first pulsar found to have planets.
~~~Notes Under the Cut~~~
I find Lich's system quite fascinating! Being a pulsar, Lich is undead. The original star is gone, now only its fast spinning core remains. And the planets are slowly fading in a sense. Draugr is the closest and Poltergeist is second, being even closer to Lich than Mercury is to our sun.
Lich: I didn't quite know what I wanted to do at first. They are an undead creature and are typically wizards, but I wondered what one would look like as a fighter from DnD or a knight.
I don't know the relationship between Lich and his planets here. I imagine he's either their father or simply a protector of them.
Draugr: They're a Viking! I wanted to draw them as androgynous as many warriors in Nordic Cultures had men and women. I drew them as more "fresh" as Draugr wasn't discovered until much later compared to the rest. They are undead, but only the cataracts and scars are seen as of now.
Poltergeist: I'm going to be honest, she's inspired by the little girl from 1982's Poltergeist. Although I did add a little bit of Wendy Darling and myself to her
Phobetor: What can I say? I like the game Hades. I kinda wanted to round up the quartet with Phobetor but still add his own flair. The thing is, Phobetor isn't undead. In Ovid's Metamorphoses, Phobetor is one of the sons of Somnus (or Hypnos in Greek Myth). While he lives in the Underworld, he technically isn't dead like how Hades and Nyx aren't dead.
That is all.
Eris, Makemake, Haumea, Quaoar, Sedna, Gonggong, Ceres, Salacia, Orcus, and Pluto
Little star, wearing hearts on your sleeves
Teach me to love
We shall dance to journey's end
As our locked embrace tells us so
Even when dawns no longer arrive
And our little moons have since parted
I shall keep you company
In the Universe's dark glory

Cosmic Horror
This is the roughest of drafts but I couldn’t stop thinking bout this and it at night sooo…
I made them woman because I love drawing royal gowns, they could also be men if someone wants to remake them :D
Earth on the other hand is more of the nature kingdom of sorts? Just were they have a lot of farms and different plants, it’s incredibly pretty place to be and very popular, flowers and other plants are so cheap be in their grown in town that every shop and house are decorated in them.
I think Earth would either be a gardener because he is Earth but also if this is a royal au who would give up putting him into big Latherous gowns with so many gems and pears??! (Earth is the biggest buyer of gems from Saturn to make his dresses)
SOMEONE SHOULD MAKE A ROYALTY SOLARBALLS AU. Or maybe it's already made, idkk. FUCK IMA DO IT ANYWAY
And let the whole world wait
So, let's use an analogy for bisexuality. Youve probably heard of the food analogy with spaghetti and pizza I think, but I have a different one.
So let's say all lesbians favorite planet is Venus.
All gay men's favorite planet is Mars.
Bisexual people like both Venus and Mars, perhaps with another planet mixed in, as in they have no true favorite. They might lean towards Venus a little bit, but they still don't have a favorite, and vice versa.
Maybe pansexual peopls like Venus, Mars and all the other planets just the same. They have no preference for any planet.
Straight women only like Mars.
Straight men only like Venus.
Planets!
What's your guyses favorite planet? Mine is Jupiter.
Here’s the orbital period of our solar system’s 8 major planets (how long it takes each to travel around the sun). Their size is to scale and their speed is accurate relative to Earth’s. The repetition of each GIF is proportional to their orbital period. Mercury takes less than 3 months to zoom around Sol, Neptune takes nearly 165 years.
🪐Space Facts!🪐
NASA's Curiosity rover found a field of pure sulfur, whereas most other sulfur found has been a mix of sulfur and some other mineral. Scientist compared this to an oasis in the desert!
Due to the environment on Mars, this sulfur is odorless since the odor is caused by hydrogen sulfide gas
🌕space facts!🌕
The James Webb Telescope recently discovered both carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide on one of Uranus' moons named Ariel. They're not sure how these exist on this space, but it indicates that the moon may have an underground ocean!
Love Space, love learning new things and I love Star Wars!
This is why I love NASA
Alan Gutierrez, 1980, as an assignment for the Art Center College Of Design. The artist, writing on DeviantArt, says it was “most likely done for some kind of ‘seashore’ assignment, I later added the planet, but all else is as it was then.”
