Rotating array of circles around a circle

There’s a lot going on in that code. There doesn’t have to be. Here’s a simple example of what I think you’re trying to draw:

function setup() {
  createCanvas(600,400);
}

function draw() {
  background( 0 );
  translate(width/2, height/2);
  noStroke();
  fill(128);
  ellipse(0, 0, 150, 150);
  for( var i = 0; i < 9; i++ ) {
    rotate( TWO_PI/9.0 );
    ellipse( 150, 0, 50, 50 );
    stroke(196);
    line( 0, 0, 150, 0 );
    noStroke();
  }
}
