It would be helpful to demonstrate and interpret the motions of planets and other celestial objects by using a split screen-

The imaging from the C3 camera takes precedence over the graphical framework insofar as there is no existing background framework presently to represent the motions of Venus and Mercury using the natural central/stationary Sun as the main reference.

"Better still, if someone wishes, he can assign to the sky those motions of the earth that [Copernicus] adds to the first two, and use the same calculation procedures. But that highly learned and intelligent man considered it inadvisable, on account of
these undisciplined minds, to invert the entire system of his hypotheses, and he contented himself with having established that which was sufficient for the true discovery of phenomena. " Gemma Frisius

To sum this up, it is far better to simplify the observations by cause than try to fit it into a predictive framework that cannot contain the insight.
