How to unlock the Astronomy achievement in Balatro - Definitive Guide
There are 12 planet cards. 3 of them are secret require their correlating hand to be played during the run for them to appear in the shop. This requirement has to be met per every new run (i.e., finding one of them in a previous run will not make it appear again in a fresh run - you must play its correlating hand to make it appear).

There should be no problem with the 9 standard planet cards, as they repeat the basic combinations. But the remaining three "secret" planets are not immediately clear how to collect, as the planet cards will not appear in the store until you knock out these very secret combinations. And even then, they can fall out after 2-3 or more blinds. You need combinations of Five of a Kind, Flush House and Flush Five. You can't do without additional purchase of cards, tarot cards, changing cards and spectral cards with the same properties. Five of a Kind - 5 cards of the same value (for example, 5 aces of any suit), Flush House - a full house of the same suit (for example, 3 nines of spades + 2 jacks of spades), Flush Five - 5 cards of the same suit and the same value (for example, 5 sevens of clubs (at the same time combine with the conditions for the Seeing Double joker, where you need to play 4 sevens of clubs)). Best done, like some other trophies, with a Checkered Deck, which starts with 26 spades and 26 hearts.
