I found that a stellar system representation is quite similar to a
molecule representation. They both show planets (electrons) in orbit
around a star (core). Im used to think we are a bit of a bigger 'world'
and the hosts of smaller worlds. "All in all we're just a brick in the
wall" resume this very well.
