Puzzle #9: We've got to get in to the locked box. When we scan the QR code we're told that two planets in this room have swapped position and the code to open the box is a combination of their names in alphabetical order. So if Mercury and Venus are swapped we'd enter MEVE.

Hint #1
Hint #1: The planets are hanging from the ceiling. School was a long time ago for me, but fortunately I can google which planets are closest and furthest from the sun. This may help: https://www.universetoday.com/72305/order-of-the-planets-from-the-sun/

Spoiler
Hint #2
Hint #2: How am I supposed to tell what planet is what? Well, let's see if I can label the distinctive ones. I know what Earth looks like, and two planets should have rings on, are they in the right position?

Spoiler
Hint #3
Hint #3: Ok, Saturn is definitely NOT in the right place, so I know that planet is incorrect. So what planet SHOULD be where Saturn is?

Spoiler
Hint #4
Hint #4: I need to put them in alphabetical order and use the first two letters of each name to form a code.
