Mercury And Venus, The Moonless Planets

Mercury and Venus are out here living their best moonless lives, and honestly? They're not handling it well. While Earth's flexing with its one gorgeous moon and Jupiter's showing off with 95+ moons like some kind of cosmic hoarder, these two inner planets are just... vibing alone in the void.

Fun fact: Mercury and Venus are the ONLY planets in our solar system without natural satellites. Scientists think it's because they're too close to the Sun—any moon would either get yoinked away by solar gravity or crash into the planet. It's like trying to keep a pet goldfish next to a black hole. Not ideal.

So yeah, these two are basically the lonely kids at the planetary lunch table, staring at everyone else's moon collection with those big sad eyes. At least they have each other... separated by millions of kilometers of empty space. Romantic.
