Is this a Junji Ito reference? Fuck yea!
Not only are orbits elliptical in nature to begin with, but even the "center point" for a more circular orbit is actually around the center of the two masses rather than one or the other (think of a board and fulcrum here). For each planet, this happens to still be within the Sun much of the time, but not its center, so the Sun wobbles.
I like how they're just chilling on that cross. I mean where else would you be when the Hellstar approaches?
Hellstar Remina approaches.
Which is funny because our knowledge of the solar system and star systems in general has exploded in the past few decades. Status quo is old and busted.
Not the issue. What's important is that planets are the gravitational big boys of a system. For example, other stuff shares an orbit with Earth, but they move in a way subordinate to it. Naturally, when you have an uncontested leader in orbital space, it's going to be relatively tidy because most stuff would have accumulated into the planet or have been ejected from orbit. Ceres and Pluto are unable to bully their neighbors around so they're just dwarf planets.
You know, all I hear is just
