Space magic distorts sizes of things in Destiny. (Destiny)

For example, on the Moon, you can see Mars as a disc with your 5x zoom sniper rifle. Mars is so fucking small IRL you can barely see it as a disc with a telescope. The Earth is moon sized from the moon. To illustrate how wrong the size of the Earth is from the moon (and also the moon from the Earth), look at the moon in real life. At around 2:00, there is a circle called Mare Crisium. That is the size of the Michigan basin, and it's barely visible naked eye. Find something the size of the Michigan basin in Destiny on the planets and it's gigantic.

Space stations 5 miles up somehow still in orbit, phobos and deimos being hueg, Saturn being both too large and too small, etc.

Also, the sun should have essentially no features beyond some sunspots. It shouldn't have filaments or visible flares of any kind...and it does. The game just makes shit up.
