They immediately find out how wrong they are. As it turns out, while it isn't the literal centre of gravity of the Solar System, it is still a symbolically powerful item that maintains the harmony of the rulers of various planets. Once the Knights of the Sun disband upon hearing of the truth, the rulers of the aforementioned planets go on a brutal war for the dominance of the Solar System.
** While they start with medieval tech, they (especially the Viscount of Venus) start to rapidly innovate in new, more brutal weapons of war, going from bows and arrows to literal nukes and massive spacefleet in the matter of hours(?).
*** And if it wasn't for Rick actively shielding Earth, there could've been millions of casualties from the collateral damage wreaked upon it by the Solar War.

''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' is essentially a study in existential horror. From the existential dread of knowing you're only one disposable version of yourself amongst nearly-infinite universes, spread over a vast, uncaring, Godless multiverse. Some of you have died gruesomely and unremembered, others are wealthier and more successful than you will ever be. The fact that you are where you are isn't even down to luck; it just is. Entire civilizations live or die at the whim of callous, Lovecraftian gods, who may even be you, whether you know it or not. There is no meaning to life, no purpose, no destiny. At one point, Morty outlines this reality to his sister, and then, as an antidote tells her to come and watch TV, which is either the most nihilistic cry of despair ever screamed from that medium or the most audacious act of native advertising in television history. Add to that extra things like the VillainProtagonist's frequently cold and brutal solutions to his problems, and there's plenty to disturb you and keep you up at night.

He has a neighbor come by who kept remembering his memories though his body slowly ages, and has been leaving notes for himself, but keeps forgetting that he wrote them.
