python3 recursion animation

Question

I need to animate a similar animation in quickdraw and I'm told to use recursion. I'm having a hard time with the orbits and this is the code I have for orbiting circle but I have no idea how to use recursion to create the above image.

import math


print("circle",400,300,50)

print("flush false")

centreX=400
centreY=300
radius=100
angle=math.pi/2



while True:
    print("color 0 0 0")
    print("clear")
    print("color 255 0 255")
    print("circle",centreX,centreY,radius)
    childX=math.sin(angle)*radius*1.5+centreX
    childY=math.cos(angle)*radius*1.5+centreY
    print("circle",childX,childY,radius/2)
    print("refresh")
    angle+=0.01

the data file looks like this:

I'm supposed to import the data into a recursive function to create the orbits and the animation but I have no idea how. I've tried almost everything, Its very frustrating.

Would this code work?

print("flush false")
scale=250/max([dict[x]["Orbital Radius"] for x in dict if "Orbital Radius" in dict[x]])
t=0
x=400
y=300
while True:
    print("refresh")
    print("colour 0 0 0")
    print("clear")
    print("colour 255 255 255")
    print("fillcircle",x,y,dict['Sun']['Radius']*scale)
    print("text ", "\"Sun\"",x+dict['Sun']['Radius']*scale,y)
    r_earth=dict['Earth']['Orbital Radius']*scale;
    print("circle",x,y,r_earth)
    r_X=x+math.sin(t*2*math.pi/dict['Earth']['Period'])*r_earth
    r_Y=y+math.cos(t*2*math.pi/dict['Earth']['Period'])*r_earth
    print("fillcircle",r_X,r_Y,dict['Earth']['Radius']*scale)
    print("text ", "\"Earth\"",r_X+dict['Earth']['Radius']*scale,r_Y)
    t+=0.02
