Can planets SHARE an orbit?

Mercury has had enough of the sun's solar flares, so he goes to Venus to share his orbit. But is this such a good idea?

00:00Oh, I'm sorry, Mercury. Didn't mean to aim that solar flare at your face.

00:07M-Mercury?

00:10Ha! You look smoking hot, Pipsqueak!

00:13Mock me all you want, Venus. I don't care anymore.

00:17I'm sick to the core of the sun's solar flares.

00:20From now on, we will share in orbit.

00:22I-uh... You can't just-

00:25I can and I will!

00:26Ugh, what an attitude.

00:28Mercury!

00:30You're going back into orbit right now!

00:32No! Venus and I are sharing in orbit now!

00:35No, we are not!

00:37Yes, we are!

00:38No, we are not!

00:40Guys, sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but when two planets share in orbit,

00:45that usually results in either a collision or one of them being hurled into the sun.

00:50I don't care, Jupiter! Still beats getting hit by solar flares all the time!

00:55Alright, alright!

00:56What if I don't hit you with them? I can aim somewhere else, like-

00:58Venus?

01:00What?

01:01What?

01:02Aww, you'd do that for me?

01:04Yes, yes, promise.

01:06I promise. If it means everything goes back to normal...

01:09NORMAL!

01:11B-b-b-but, you could just not aim your solar flares at any of them!

01:16So thank you again for watching!

01:19Because of this I was super excited!

01:19Because of the weather, I need you!

01:20B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b!
