If you have an affinity for space, astronomy, or are simply fascinated by exploring the unknown, getting a planet tattoo is the ideal way to show your enthusiasm. Some people opt for a realistic design of the solar system, while others favor more abstract or symbolic artwork. No matter which style you pick, getting a planet tattoo will surely be an eye-catching piece of artwork!
Earth
It symbolizes life, rarity, purity, sacredness, adaptiveness, change, and eternity – just to name a few.
Some people might go for a globe that completely surrounds Earth, while others might go with an even simpler symbol. It all depends on your budget and personal taste – no matter which design you opt for though, there will be plenty of meaningful messages attached!
However, the best way to guarantee you get a stunning Earth tattoo is by finding an experienced artist. Inexperienced artists may create an Earth that doesn’t resemble reality too closely or make the globe too detailed, which could cause issues with placement and size.
Mars
It also boasts numerous craters on its surface – evidence of impacts that occurred billions of years ago.
This topography may have been created due to water that once ran across Mars, as well as other geological activity like lava flows and ancient impacts.
Aside from its polar caps, Mars’ surface offers many fascinating features that can be observed with a telescope. These include Olympus Mons volcano, ice caps at each Martian pole, and canyons like Valles Marineris. Mars rotates once every 24.5 hours, so plan your observation time carefully. Dust devils have been observed around the planet, blowing away surface dirt. These scratch marks, which form an angel’s halo and head, may have been created by these dust devils.
Venus
Venus’ surface is an intensely hot landscape, reaching temperatures of over 900 degrees Fahrenheit (equivalent to being almost a mile underwater). Its atmosphere of 95 percent carbon dioxide traps heat inside, creating a greenhouse effect more than double Mercury’s.
Venus’ air is so thick that standing on it would crush you to death. Even if you were immune to the intense heat, your skin would be torn, and bones and metal would burn within seconds.
Ancient civilizations believed Venus to be two planets: a “morning star” and an “evening star.” This idea gained widespread acceptance in 1950 when teenage idol Frankie Avalon wrote a song called “Venus.” Astrologists have long revered Venus as a goddess of love and beauty.
Saturn
Saturn is one of the most iconic planets in our solar system, its rings stunning and symbolism abundant. For space enthusiasts and those interested in space exploration, getting a tattoo featuring this planet could be an excellent choice for adornment.
Uranus
Uranus is one of the gas giants and was discovered by astronomers in 1781.
Though it can be challenging to observe Saturn without a telescope, it is usually visible on clear nights. And if you’re really lucky, you might even get lucky enough to witness its aurorae against its equatorial rings!
At least 80% of its mass consists of liquid water, methane, and ammonia above an inner rocky core that heats up to 9,000 degrees Fahrenheit (4,982 degrees Celsius).
Scientists speculate that Uranus’ interior is mostly composed of super-compressed ice. Unlike other gas giants, Uranus does not radiate more heat than it receives; this could be because there isn’t an internal source of energy to keep it warm. By rotating sideways on Uranus, its magnetic field lines become twisted and create a long magnetosphere tail. This extends millions of miles and disrupts the solar wind flow to Earth; additionally, Uranus’ aurorae do not align with its poles like they do for Earth and Jupiter.
Neptune
Neptune’s atmosphere consists mainly of hydrogen with some helium and methane. Methane absorbs red light, giving Neptune its vibrant blue hue.
Like Uranus, Neptune also has large dark circles on its surface, which astronomers believe to be storms. The largest of these storms, known as the Great Dark Spot, was photographed by Voyager 2 in 1989.
t storms. Neptune’s thick atmosphere consists primarily of hydrogen with a trace amount of methane and helium. Methane also contributes to its deep blue hue as it reflects blue wavelengths of light. Meanwhile, Neptune’s moon Triton experiences extreme cold – an average temperature of -373 degrees Fahrenheit.
Pluto
Pluto, once considered a planet until it was reclassified as a dwarf planet in 2006, is one of the most popular celestial symbols for tattoos. This design works great for anyone interested in astronomy or wanting something with more intricate detail when combined with stars and moons from above.
Pluto tattoo symbols have long been associated with exploration and mystery. Whether used inside the logo of an organization that encourages self-reflection or somewhere more sinister, this tattoo design will surely charm those seeking inspiration in their daily life.
No matter its plight, Pluto remains an enchanting piece of space. Covered in mountains, valleys, plains, and even craters, its beauty has won over millions of hearts around the globe.
Pluto’s surface is mostly made up of nitrogen ice. The northern hemisphere is covered in Tombaugh Regio, while its western lobe is Sputnik Planitia with mountains made of the same nitrogen-ice. At higher latitudes in the north, darker regions may have been created by a recent volcanic event.
