Each drone represents
a different planet.
00:00:03.819 --> 00:00:05.162
And the orbital speeds
00:00:05.162 --> 00:00:07.847
have been scaled
so one Earth year
00:00:07.857 --> 00:00:10.216
takes just 30 seconds.
00:00:12.173 --> 00:00:13.544
Already, it's clear to see
00:00:13.544 --> 00:00:16.488
how tightly bunched
these inner planets are,
00:00:16.488 --> 00:00:18.349
and how the closest planets
00:00:18.349 --> 00:00:20.775
orbit faster
than those farther out.
