Would have been a lot better with an overhead drone shot when they were doing the lights to represent orbits
Time lapse photos require a fixed vantage point. So that would be impossible

I'm pretty sure that a Scandinavian country has a scale model of the solar system that covers most of the country.
Yep, it's Sweden.
