How do I solve the planet puzzle?

  • 1 of 5: To solve the puzzle, you need three golden spheres.
  • 2 of 5: Scan the sphere into the space next to the other two spheres.
  • 3 of 5: Your goal is to place the spheres into the correct three of the eight slots. To get the spheres back to try again, push the orange button.
  • 4 of 5: When you've done it right, the sun at left will spin.
  • 5 of 5: When the sun spins DON'T push the orange button; that will undo what you just did.
