Eight if you don't count Pluto. That is - 8 major planets. But there are several minor planets though; Pluto (obviously) Ceres (in the asteroid belt) Charon (Pluto's twin planet) and several others that are farther out than Pluto. look them up online - Trans-plutonion planets or planetoids.
Since the 2006 reclassification of Pluto to a Dwarf Planet, there are now eight planets in our solar system.
Many. In the early solar system, there were many more planets than there are now. Most hit joined into larger planets and a few were captured and became moons.
They could, but as of now, no astronauts have travelled to any other planets in the solar system.
The planets in our solar system formed our of the solar nebular/disk from which the Sun was made (as the Sun formed), some 4,600 million years ago. Therefore there have always been roughly the same number of planets as we have now. However, our solar system could have lost one or more of the original planets that were formed as the planets settled into their current positions. As part of the settling process, orbital resonances can cause planets to interact with each other gravitationally and planets can be ejected from the forming solar system. If this did happen, then we do not how may planets there were originally.
The newest planet was the planet Pluto, but that's a "dwarf planet" now. A few more dwarf planets have been found, but no new planets in our solar system.

its nine planets in the solar system
Yes, it is. At 2006, the scientists decided that it was not a planet of solar system. Now, there are just eight planets in the solar system.
9. Actually, there are 8 planets in our solar system. Pluto is no longer considered a planet. However, we have now found approx. 400 extra-solar planets, or planets in other star systems.
There are eight planets. Pluto, formerly classed as a planet, has been reclassified and is now one of three dwarf planets.
There are eight planets and three dwarf planets in our solar system . This has now changed 8 Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. and 5 dwarf planets. Eris, Ceres, Makemake, Haumea and Pluto
Pluto is no longer a planet it is now a dwarf planet. There are only 8 planets in our Solar System.
they were discovered millions and millions of centuries ago and no use of thinking about it now,instead we can try to discover many other planets at present
