The visualization displays the Sun and all eight planets of our solar system in orbital order, with each celestial body shown as a colored circle labeled with its name and position. A radial gradient and glow effect distinguish the Sun, while Saturn includes a ring element. The code uses plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, with `querySelectorAll` and `addEventListener` to apply a white box-shadow highlight on mouse hover. Planet sizes and colors are hardcoded in CSS to approximate relative proportions rather than accurate scale.

This visualization shows the Sun and the eight planets of our solar system in order:
- The Sun (our star)
- Mercury (1)
- Venus (2)
- Earth (3)
- Mars (4)
- Jupiter (5)
- Saturn (6)
- Uranus (7)
- Neptune (8)
The celestial bodies are sized roughly proportional to their relative sizes (not to scale).
Each object is represented by:
- A colored circle representing the body's appearance
- The body's name
- Its order from the Sun (except for the Sun itself)
The visualization uses HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Hover over each celestial body to see a highlight effect. The Sun has a special radial gradient and glow effect to represent its fiery nature.
