The planets are approximated by circular orbits, the distances to the sun of the outer planets are shortened so that both inner and outer planets can be represented.
 
The settings can be opened by tapping the center three times.

Rocket launch and solar wind are updated every hour.

Hints:
The setting for mobile data refers only to the solar wind, since this can be very data-intensive.

The widget has not all functions of the watchface.

Ratings and reviews

Great widget for space lovers! The little solar system model this app provides is absolutely charming. There are also a lot of cool features you can play with. I customized the widget settings to make it work with my minimalist home screen and am really enjoying the pop of color that the cute little moons and planets add :) I'd love to have an option to customize what happens when I tap on the widget on my home screen, and for one of those options to be "nothing" instead of opening the app.

My issues was fixed long ago, sorry I never updated this review until now. It gets full stars for functionality. One star lowered for style. I think its lacking in terms of style, in terms of its look when inactive. Im liking it though. I need to play with it more. In fact Ill just give it 5 stars for the astronomy love put into it. I hope this continues to be worked on.

Clock hands are too small
