Viewfinder features multiple types of collectibles, with each type tied to a certain chapter of the game. Chapter four features all the planets from our solar system. Some of them can be quite challenging to find, and I must admit, I had a bit of trouble finding a few of them myself. If you're having trouble discovering all the planets in Viewfinder, this guide has got you covered!
All nine planets in Viewfinder and their locations
In this guide, we have compiled a list of all the solar system's planets in Viewfinder. There are nine of them because, unlike in BitLife, the game also counts Pluto as one of the planets. Following are the solutions and locations where to find them.
9 - Mercury location in Viewfinder
To find Mercury in Viewfinder, take up an Optional Challenge in Level 8. Follow the steps below to discover the exact location of the planet:
- Once inside the Optional Challenge level, take a photo of the platform with the battery standing on it.
- Use the photo to cut into the fence on the left side of the starting position.
- Walk straight back until you can walk no further.
- Turn right, and you should be facing the cherry blossom tree.
- To the right of the tree should be a small office table with a brown box, some books, and a mug on top of it. You can find Mercury on it. Press E to pick it up.
8 - Venus location in Viewfinder
To find Venus in Viewfinder, take up an Optional Challenge in Level 3. Immediately upon entering the level, look to the wall on your left and approach it. Venus is sitting right on the wall's edge, right of the white pillar.

7 - Earth location in Viewfinder
To find Earth in Viewfinder, go to Level 5 Optional Challenge and follow the steps below:
- On the starting platform, approach the round table and take a photo.
- Put a photo in the copy machine to your right and make a copy of the photo.
- Make a copy of a copy and repeat this process one more time until you have at least two copies, plus the original photo. You will use those photos to create a series of two platforms leading down to a lower level.
- Walk up to the platform's edge, look slightly down, and imprint a photo. The platform should have a downward slope.
- Walk down onto an imprinted slope and make a 180-degree turn. Look through the gap between the photocopied pathway and the edge you just stepped down from. You'll see another platform right below the one you stepped down from. Imprint another copy that cuts into the first copy just enough to pass through. You should position the copy to the right of the lower platform.
- Step onto the newly imprinted platform.
- Walk down the platform and step onto the one that is positioned below your starting point.
- The planet Earth is located on a small white round table next to a radio with a blue sticker placed on it. Press E to pick it up.
6 - Mars location in Viewfinder
To find Mars in Viewfinder, visit the Level 1 Optional Challenge. It should be fairly easy to find. Once you begin with the level, walk forward and up a set of stairs onto a raised balcony-like platform. You will find Mars sitting on the edge of the wall, left of a golden telescope.
5 - Neptune location in Viewfinder
To find Neptune in Viewfinder, visit the Level 2 Optional Challenge.
- Make a turn immediately, and you should see a double flight of stairs taking you up.
- Pick up a painting from the table lying next to an old-fashioned gramophone.
- Look down to the floor to place it and fall into the painting.
- You are looking for the gray-colored room marked with a purple star on the painting.
- Once you enter the room, there will be a multi-colored bookshelf, and Neptune will be located on the middle gray shelf. Press E to pick it up.
4 - Uranus location in Viewfinder
To find Uranus in Viewfinder, get to level 7.3 in Chapter 4.
- Turn right and head toward the tree line, passing a row of green cabinets to your right.
- Step out on a narrow balcony. It stretches around the entire level.
- Turn left, follow the way, and over a small flight of stairs.
- You should eventually come up to a sitting area with a golden telescope.
- You can find Uranus on a small brown round table next to a coffee mug.

To find Pluto in Viewfinder, go to Level 6.4 in Chapter 4. To find the planet, you will have to do an imprinting maneuver similar to the one when you looked for Neptune.
