The comic brilliantly plays on astronomical facts with religious terminology. Mars (the red planet) has only two moons, Phobos and Deimos, while Jupiter has a staggering 95 confirmed moons. The "Catholic" reference is a clever nod to large families traditionally associated with Catholicism. In the final panel, Jupiter looks absolutely overwhelmed by its excessive lunar offspring. Classic case of astronomical birth control failure.
