For fuck's sakes, didn't any of the writers take basic astronomy?

Man, I hate it when kids cartoons based in sci-fi and magic don't get their non-common knowledge science right. Talking anthropomorphic cats and magical space mummies are just completely ruined by this.

Edit: It's the reason I can't watch My Little Pony anymore.
