That's my stage name. Nice work!
well, i think that this meme relates to the perceptual distortion you see with near-horizon moon. you can't catch that with a camera, but it's subjectively the image that comes out of your visual cortex. so, probably, at the distance that a jupiter like planet could actually be at, could possibly be apprehended by human eyes exactly as depicted. just shrink those stupid planets down, put them near the horizon, and make them the same size as you see the moon at the horizon. then the unreality factor disappears.
come to think of it, it's such a simple transform that you probably can make an on-device AI transformer that does the "how it looks to a human eye" transform. it's not the only one either. the entire distant field in a landscape is distorted by the visual cortex. cameras make everything look further away, that the brain perceives as being bigger
