## Summary

Eight planets. One rocket. One very official passport. Dr. PX tries to land on every planet in the solar system and get a stamp from each one: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune (and a quick hello to Pluto). Some of them try to kill him. Four of them don't even have a floor.

You'll see: why the Sun looks 3x bigger from Mercury, the Soviet lander that survived 127 minutes on Venus, Olympus Mons, Mars's blue sunsets, the NASA probe that fell into Jupiter, Saturn's super-thin rings, the planet that rolls on its side, the planet found with math, and why Earth is named after the ground.

Honest note: the trip is a cartoon adventure; every fact in it is real and sourced below. "Diamond rain" on Neptune is a scientific idea, not yet proven.
