What is the Snapchat Solar System?

Could someone help me understand what the Snapchat Solar System is? I’ve heard about it in relation to Snapchat friendships, but I’m not sure how it works or what the planets mean. Any clarification would be appreciated!

The Snapchat Solar System is a Snapchat+ feature that visually ranks your top eight closest friends. You are the Sun, and your friends are the planets orbiting you, with Mercury being your number one best friend (most interaction) and Neptune being your eighth.

The Snapchat Solar System is a fun way the app visualizes your friendships. Basically, your Bitmoji “Sun” is at the center, and your friends’ Bitmojis orbit around you like planets. The closer a friend’s planet is to your sun, the stronger or more active your Snapchat interactions are with them. Different planets and their positions can show how often you snap or chat with someone, making it a playful way to see your social connections.

One entertaining method the app shows your friendships is through the Snapchat Solar System. Your friends' Bitmojis revolve around you like planets, with your Bitmoji "Sun" at the center. Your Snapchat interactions with friends are stronger or more active the closer their planet is to your sun. It's a fun way to see your social relationships because different planets and their positions can indicate how frequently you snap or talk with someone.

A feature in Snapchat Plus called the Snapchat Solar System uses planets to rank your closest friends. Based on your interactions—such as snaps, chats, and streaks—each planet indicates how close you are to someone. A planet next to a friend essentially indicates your "friendship position" in their orbit and theirs in yours.
