Here in this solar system, there are officially eight planets, plus at least five "dwarf planets". However, the International Astronomical Union's sort-of haphazard definition of "planet" might actually exclude two of the "planets" and relegate them to dwarf status.
Beyond our solar system, we have positive evidence of over 3,000 extra-solar planets, and more are announced every week, it seems. It is likely that the majority of the trillion or so stars in the Milky Way have one or more planets.
