If the Cascade were still out of sync, the planets might have only been visible for a second longer once it were brought back into sync; after all, the Cascade was only one second forward in time from the rest of the universe.
If anything not in time-sync with the rest of the universe isn't visible, then why are the Doctor and the TARDIS visible?
Um ... magic Time Lord technology?
Actually, Gallifrey is supposed to exist "at the nexus of time and space," or something like that, which is why there aren't any AU Time Lords. So presumably they are Speshul in a way that allows them to be visible despite transcending the universe's normal clock, or something like that.
