No, just one - our sun. Our galaxy, on the other hand, contains between 100-400 billion stars.

what other planets are nearby to Jupiter?
Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar System so any of the other planets could fit inside a volume the size of Jupiter, some of them many times over.
How many planets actually fit in the sun?
All the planets in the solar system would fit in the sun with lots of space left over.
How many solar system are in a galaxy?
Our galaxy has over 200 billion stars; many of them do have planets, and thus qualify as a "solar system". As to the total number, we will never know, as solar systems will live and die. As a rough guess, at least 50% of all stars should have planets - so that could be classified as a "Solar System".
Why is liquid so rare in your solar system?
Well, in my solar system liquid isn't really that rare. The second planet in my solar system has an almost entirely liquid crust, and a liquid mantle. The third planet orbiting the star in my solar system has a surface over 75% covered in liquid, and has a liquid mantle. The sixth and seventh planets in my solar system both have large hydrogen oceans. Several of the moons orbiting the sixth and seventh planets in my solar system also have liquids. I don't see why liquid could be called rare in my solar system. What about yours?
When the solar system was created planets were formed from the ten percent of matter left over from a nebula?
No. The planets make up about a tenth of a percent of the mass of the solar system. Not ten percent. Ten percent of the sun's mass would be enough to make a red dwarf star.
Are there planets outside your Solar system?
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.
How many planets and what are they called?
There are 8 planets in the solar system: Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune However, there have been over 1000 planets discovered in the last 20 years orbiting other stars.
How can planets in your solar system orbit the sun?
The gravity reaching out to the eight planets in our solar system from the sun is not enough to thrust all of them inside it, but enough not to let them scatter all over the region.
What planets are there not just in your solar system?
Planets found outside our own solar system are called exo-solar planets or exoplanets. These are in orbit around other stars. It's ver difficult to detect them due to the distances involved, but with modern techniques, over 500 have been confirmed.

How many planets do humans know about?
The number is always increasing, but at the end of 2011 is nearing 1000.In our solar system, there are 8 planets. Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune. There are a further five dwarf planets, including Pluto.Astronomers have discovered many more planets in other solar systems over more recent years, several hundred to date.
How many planets actually fit in the sun?
All the planets in the solar system would fit in the sun with lots of space left over.
Asteroids are rocks left over from when the solar system was formed as the planets and moons do they?
yes they are. when the planets were first made, they crashed together and the astroids broke off the planets

Are there any other planets other than the eight major planets of our solar system?
Over 900 planets have been discovered orbiting other stars. These are called exoplanets.
Is the Sun over 1000 years old?
yes , of corse the sun is older than 1000 years old because the earth is alot older then 1000 years!Answ2. The Solar system, Sol and the planets is approximately 4.5x109 years old.This may be established by radioactive dating methods.
Is Earth the only planet?
Earth is one of many planets. There are 8 planets in our own solar system and over 400 exoplanets found so far.
