About the project
Planet Universe follows the eight planets of the solar system as they live side by side — squabbling over orbits, throwing comet parties, and learning that even in the vastness of space, no one spins alone. Each 11-minute episode brings one planet's quirks to the front while the others orbit in and out of the story.
The series is animated in Bahrain by a student-led team, and every frame is produced through the Bahrain Student Film Festival's production programme. Backing this campaign funds the remaining episodes of season one.
Main characters

MercuryFastest of the family — never on time anyway
EarthThe grounded one — keeps everyone in orbit
