Several planets have been found outside of our solar system, and we have just begun to search for them seriously. The ones we can observe are relatively close to us (relative to the size of the galaxy and universe), and we have not observed any that seem earth-like in size and/or characteristics. But our technology is improving all the time. There are other planets outside the solar system, but life on those planets is still questionable. You can see online the Hubble telescope to show you other galaxies and planets.
A:Yes, there are more than 300 known planets orbiting other stars. They are called extra-solar planets.See link for further information

Yes. Scientists have identified over 300 "extra-solar" planets or "exo-planets" which are orbiting other stars. So far, most of these are the size of Jupiter or larger; small planets such as Earth aren't massive enough to cause gravitational perturbations in the motion of the star, and not big enough to occult the star visibly.
However, as telescopes improve, this is likely to be achieved.
I believe that there is othere galaxys,solar systems and life in the world because in 1958, a space probe went as far as it could and went through another galaxy with more than 100planets on the vid but then the space probe just turnd off beecause of the atmospheric pressure and other gasses.
Our own sun is named Sol, and the solar system is Sol's system; technically, there is only one solar system, since there is only one Sol, but there are lots of other stars that have planets, and these form stellar systems.
Yes, there are planets outside our solar system.
Yes, it is. Our own solar system is located within an outer arm (called the Orion-Cygnus Arm) of the Milky Way Galaxy.
No. Galaxies are well beyond our solar system. Our solar system is just one tiny part of the Milky Way Galaxy.
That's "EXO-planets" ; planets outside our solar system. Planets that orbit other stars. The prefix "exo-" means "outside" or "foreign".
Our solar system is the planets
There are eight planets and five dwarf planets in our solar system.
There are four planets in our Solar System that are gas giants: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. There are many others but are extrasolar, as in outside our Solar System.
There are 8 planets in the solar system
Extra solar planets are planets that is outside of our solar system.
There are more than 300 planets currently known to be outside our solar system.
Yes, hundreds of "extrasolar" planets, i.e., planets outside our own Solar System, have already been discovered.Yes, hundreds of "extrasolar" planets, i.e., planets outside our own Solar System, have already been discovered.Yes, hundreds of "extrasolar" planets, i.e., planets outside our own Solar System, have already been discovered.Yes, hundreds of "extrasolar" planets, i.e., planets outside our own Solar System, have already been discovered.
Well, there are planets outside of the solar system, and there is one that is livable, but I don't know what it is called.
None. By definition , our "solar system" is everything controlled by the gravity of our sun. The planets, their satellites, asteroids, dwarf planets, comets, interplanetary dust, and man-made satellites are "within" our solar system. Any "planet" outside out solar system is just that - OUTSIDE of it.
The outer Solar System is the part outside the orbit of Mars. This region of the Solar System is home to four planets and numerous dwarf planets. The planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
Yes, there are over 200 more planets outside the solar system, these planets are called extrasolar planets. There are also more then 170 solar systems inside of the Milky Way, on average astronomers find around 25 new planets a year.
yes but they are outside our solar system in our Solar system are only 8 the others are dwarf planets Edit: May 8th 2013 There are 11 in our close range solar system but millions outside our univerese or solar system. Remember space is infinite.
A solar system comprises a star (or combination of gravity bound stars) and their orbiting planets. We think the majority of stars are solar systems an we have detected planets orbiting stars other than the Sun. However in the process of forming a solar system we believe that planets my be permanently ejected from orbiting their stars and flung off into interstellar space. These planets would therefore indeed be outside any solar system.
There are thousands and thousands of other planets outside of our solar system, along with many other galaxies, universes, and planetoids, and possibly other forms of life.
The only planet on our solar system that resides withinthe Goldilocks zone is Earth.The planets that reside outside the Goldilocks zone are:MercuryVenusMarsJupiterSaturnUranusNeptune
Yes, we have discovered several.
