About Celestial Buddies

Celestial Buddies is an original line of plush characters each personifying a celestial body occupying our heavens. The Celestial Buddies' "Big Bang" moment occurred after the creator of this miniature stuffed universe saw a documentary series on the Solar System and realized that there were no plush toys depicting our planetary neighbors. So she set to work, and Celestial Buddies is the result.

Jupiter Buddy

I am a big bold giant!

Jupiter…is a big, bold giant, the King of the Planets! Being the most massive planet in our Solar System certainly has its perks!

I am the largest planet of the Solar System, 2 ½ times the mass of all the other planets combined, so it makes sense that I am named after the Roman King of the Gods! I am the fifth planet and first gas giant from the Sun. Gas giants have thick atmospheres of hydrogen and helium that become denser closer to the core. The distinctive stripes on my exterior are a result of my rapid rotation which generates high velocity winds that create the dynamic horizontal bands of clouds. The Giant Red Spot, my most recognizable feature, is a hurricane-like storm almost as big as the Earth.  The planets closer to the Sun have zero, one or two moons . . .I have at least 79, although only four of them, the ones first discovered by the famous astronomer Galileo in the year 1610, can be seen with a small telescope.

I am the Ring Leader!

Saturn…is the ring leader of the galactic gang! Saturn’s extraordinary rings are one of the most recognized wonders of our solar system.

I am the sixth planet from the Sun and second largest in the Solar System. I am easily recognized by my extraordinary rings. Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune have rings too, but while theirs are narrow and dark, mine are bright, due to the light reflecting qualities of the ice crystals that make up the majority of my rings. My rings extend hundreds of thousands of miles into space. Interspersed throughout are particles ranging in size from specks of dust to large rocky objects 30 feet in diameter.

My rings were formed a few hundred million years ago from the remnants of comets, asteroids or shattered moons . . . but I still have 82 moons left, some large and some very small.

Uranus Buddy

I am the King of the Heavens . . .and one cool sidekick!

I am Uranus, the King of the Heavens and one cool side kick! I say that because my most unique feature is that I travel around the Solar System on my side, rolling like a ball (not spinning like a top like the other planets).

I’m the seventh planet from the Sun, named for the Greek God of the Heavens. A thick cloud cover of methane gas, which absorbs red and reflects blue, gives me my teal tint.  I have at least 27 moons as well as rings which surround me from top to bottom, unlike, for example. Saturn's famous rings which surround the middle of that planet. 

My most unique feature is that my axis is tilted 98 degrees, so I rotate on my side rolling around the Sun like a ball, not spinning like a top like all the other planets. It is believed that in the early stages of my formation, an Earth-sized object crashed into me, knocking me over on my side . . . Oops!

Neptune Buddy

I may be cold, but I am one far-out friend!

Neptune…I may be cold, but I’m one far out friend!  The furthest planet from the Sun, I’m named for the Roman God of the Sea, but it’s not water that makes me so blue. It’s the methane in my atmosphere.

Because I am so far away, you can’t see me with the naked eye. I was the first planet found through mathematical prediction, rather than direct observation. My most defining characteristic is an active storm system, similar to Jupiter’s Red Spot, but mine is dark, almost black. Surrounded by white cirrus clouds of frozen methane, I have winds stronger than any other planet’s – as high as 1,300 miles per hour!

It takes me 165 of your years to make one trip around the Sun, but my day lasts only about 16 of your hours. My largest moon, Triton, was discovered just a couple of weeks after I was, but more recent space flights have shown that I have a total of at least 14 moons.

Pluto & Charon Buddy

Have a heart . . . love a planet!

Pluto and Charon…have a heart, love a planet!  

Pluto I’m a dwarf with a heart! I was discovered in 1930 by the astronomer Clyde Tombaugh as the ninth planet from the Sun,  but I was reclassified as a “dwarf planet” in 2006. In 2015, NASA’s New Horizons Spacecraft sent back lots of scientific data and  beautiful photos of me, some which show a giant heart-shaped area on my face, but you wouldn’t want to try to live on me. I’m mostly made of rock and ice, I'm very cold, and my atmosphere is mostly nitrogen, with some methane and carbon monoxide. Plus, I am so far from the Sun that even daylight here is fainter than twilight on Earth.

Charon I was discovered in 1978 and am the largest of Pluto’s five moons, but I’m more than just an ordinary satellite. I’m more than half as big as Pluto, and because Pluto and I actually revolve around each other, we are sometimes called a “double planet.” Scientists have nicknamed my dark cap “Mordor” after a part of “Middle Earth” in Tolkien’s book, The Lord of The Rings. My orbit is “synchronous” with my rotation, so the same side of me always faces Pluto, just like the same side of your Moon always faces Earth. My little brother and sister moons are named Styx, Nyx, Kerberos and Hydra.

  • Care. Spot clean with mild detergent and cold water, but toy may be machine washed in cold water, gentle cycle, if needed.  Best to dry at low or no heat in a pillow case or similar to reduce risk of scratching "eyes."
