What About the Planets?

"He made the stars also".

But what about the planets?

Well what's the definition of a star?

For the purposes of Genesis' account, it was everything in space that appeared as light on the earth, besides the sun and moon. It didn't matter what its composition was.

Of course the closer light sources couldn't be big suns. And being close to the sun, they didn't need to be light sources in themselves, because they could just reflect the sun's light.

But why were they needed? Besides light, for signs and seasons.
