Sun is dying. I declare myself as the new star of this galaxy. But I'm not going to let someone like you become our new leader.
A comedic animated skit where the Sun falls ill, planets squabble over succession, and Earth goes blind and deaf after absorbing the Sun's powers. Playful space humor.
Key Takeaways
- This is a comedic fictional skit, not a factual astronomy explanation.
- The humor comes from planets acting like squabbling people with human traits.
- The Sun's solar flare and aurora are used as plot devices rather than accurately explained.
What the video covers
- The Sun is sick and appears to be 'dying', prompting planets to argue over who should become the new star of the galaxy.
- Uranus and other planets bicker over leadership, with several self-declaring as the new star.
- Mercury offers to get medicine, but the Sun asks for a white lily for a 'funeral' instead.
- Earth visits the Sun to check on him and suddenly goes blind, then deaf, as his powers overwhelm him.
- The Sun's cold and radiation are portrayed as harmful to the nearest planet, Mercury.
- Saturn and Jupiter are unable to hear Earth's calls, and Earth's satellite and internet go down.
- A character deduces that Earth received too much power from the dying Sun, causing sensory loss, evidenced by an aurora on Earth.
- The video ends with a character resolving to go to the Sun to gain that power despite opposition from Saturn.
- The humor relies on absurd, exaggerated scenarios and playful misunderstandings about cosmic bodies.
- The scientific accuracy is low; the premise is fictional and not an educational depiction of solar physics.

Speaker A
Uranus, kneel to the new star. Worship me as the new light of the universe.
Speaker A
Oh, such pain. Feels like dying. Sun is dying. Sun is dying. Sun is dying. Sun is dying.
Speaker A
Someone's dying? That's it, Sun. I'm going to the drugstore and get some medicine for you.
Speaker A
No need, Mercury. This is just a solar flare thing. It's going to heal in no time. But if you want to help, you can get me some white lily.
Speaker A
White lily? What for?
Speaker A
I heard someone's dying. I'm going to bring it to the funeral.
Speaker A
Uh, all right. Just hang in there.
Speaker A
I suppose we're all here because of the same news.
Speaker A
Yes. That's why, prior to the Sun's dying, I declare myself as the new star of this galaxy.
Speaker A
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold it, champ. Who said you can just decide the fate of this solar system by yourself?
Speaker A
I have the criteria. Or perhaps you want to fight for the title.
Speaker A
Huh. I'm not even interested. But I'm not going to let someone like you become our new leader.
Speaker A
Stop. What are you even doing, fellas? Sun is not dead yet, and you already fight over his position.
Speaker A
Oh, shut up, Earth. Your humans believed you were the center of the universe. That was ages ago.
Speaker A
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to show Sun that I'm his true comrade.
Speaker A
Um, hey, Sun. How are you feeling?
Speaker A
Oh, hey, Earth. Well, as you see here.
Speaker A
Um. Yeah. So, what's up?
Speaker A
Listen, Sun. I just want you to know that I'm—
Speaker A
Huh?
Speaker A
Ah! I'm blind! I'm blind!
Speaker A
What? You're blind? Since when? Have you had a check to the doctor?
Speaker A
No.
Speaker A
Then you should definitely check it.
Speaker A
Oh, poor Earth. Stupid Sun. Coughing and sneezing hard. It's annoying. It hurts.
Speaker A
White lily? Is flower even on his diet?
Speaker A
Hey, homie. Why the sour face?
Speaker A
Sun is having a cold.
Speaker A
The Sun is cold. That's not funny, okay?
Speaker A
I'm the nearest to him, so his radiation's killing me. And now he wants me to bring him a white lily instead of medicine.
Speaker A
Oh, but he's right, though. I've seen it happen. You just have to wait until his cold goes away.
Speaker A
Uh, [sighs and gasps] it's going to take forever.
Speaker A
Well, you can join me if you want to kill some time. Come on.
Speaker A
That's a good idea.
Speaker A
Ah, help me. I'm blind! I'm blind!
Speaker A
Earth, are you okay? He just said he's blind.
Speaker A
Jupiter, Saturn, are you there? I can't hear anything. I'm also deaf.
Speaker A
Oh, no! My satellite! My internet!
Speaker A
I think I see what's happening. Earth received powers from the dying Sun, but it's too overwhelming, causing Earth to go blind and deaf.
Speaker A
And how on universe could you possibly know that? Didn't you see that beautiful aurora on Earth's head?
Speaker A
I'm going to go to Sun and earn that power. You better not try to stop me, Saturn.
