For nearby stars, the use the parallax effect - the fact that stars change their apparent position, due to Earth's movement around the Sun. The larger the parallax angle, the closer the star is to Earth.

How many methods can scientists discover planets in other galaxies?
1 microlensing !
What is A PERSon who studies planets and galaxys?
A person who studies planets and galaxies is called an astronomer. Is that the answer you were looking for?
Where do Stars Galaxies Nebulae and Planets fit in the grand scheme?
Galaxies/nebulae are at the top of the tree; each one contains several billion stars. Each star might have many planets orbiting around it, and planets can have many moons.
Do all galaxies have planets in?
Probably, but impossible to tell as we are only just seeing planets within our own galaxy.
Which heavently bodies form the universe?
Stars, Planets, nebulae, galaxies.
Which objects helps scientists discover how galaxies and planets are formed?
penis

1 microlensing !
How do scientists learn about galaxies?
they learn by going to a good school and study the stars and planets
What is the space that probes provides scientists with information on gaseous giant planets?
The Voyager space probe provides scientists with information on gaseous giant planets.
What planets have galaxies?
None. Galaxies on the other hand do contain planets
Why is it important to view galaxies that are far away and galaxies that are close?
To know what is the life there, and if there's any other creatures or "aliens". some scientists are looking for planets with water and life on them.
How do scientists discover planets in other galaxies?
They take some tacos and throw them in space and see if they hit another planet.
Are galaxies related to planets?
Galaxies are generally a collection of stars. But within any galaxy, there are lots of other objects, including planets. So galaxies are related to planets in some ways.
Which planets in our galaxy or in other galaxies have life?
So far most planets are too hot or too cold to support life or are gas giants. Scientists are yet to find signs of life in other planets, other than planet Earth. The universe has many galaxies and planets, most are still yet to be explored. The search for extraterrestrial life is ongoing.
What are the galaxies in the whirlpool galaxy?
There is not much solid information known about planets in other galaxies. Most planets discovered so far are in our own galaxy. This is because it is easier to discover a relatively near-by planet than one that is much farther away. However, the planets found so far make it likely that in our own Milky Way, and therefore other galaxies as well, have at least as many planets as stars.
Are there other planets where you can live and other planets in galaxies?
yes we can live
Are there more planets or galaxies in your universe?
More planets. A typical galaxy probably has billions of planets.
