What other star has planets orbiting around them?

We believe that most stars have planets. The first star PROVABLY detected to have a planet was Gamma Cephei.


Which method has not yet detected planets around other stars?

Gravitational microlensing has not yet been used to detect planets around other stars. This method involves the gravitational deflection of light from a background star due to the presence of a foreground object, such as a planet, but no planets have been directly detected using this technique.


What do astronomers think about the possibility of planets orbiting other stars and being detected?

Astronomers believe that planets orbiting other stars, known as exoplanets, are common in the universe. They have been detected using various methods such as the transit method and radial velocity method. The discovery of exoplanets has greatly expanded our understanding of planetary systems beyond our own.


What planets are out there that's are not in your solar system?

These are planets that are in orbit around other stars, known as exosolar planets.


What do all the planets orbit around?

Are there planets further than our solar system?

Yes. They are called "exoplanets" and they orbit other stars. They have only been detected recently.


Do the stars orbit the planets or do planets orbit stars?

Moons orbit planets. Planets orbit stars. Some stars orbit other stars, or orbit their mutual center of gravity. Stars orbit the center of the galaxy. Galaxies may orbit the center of the "galactic group".


What are star planets called?

That doesn't make sense. There are stars, and there are planets. If you mean "planets around stars, other than the Sun", those are usually called "extrasolar planets" or "exoplanets".


What are x o planets?

Exoplanets are planets that are located outside of our solar system. They orbit stars other than our Sun and are typically detected using telescopes and other astronomical instruments. The study of exoplanets is an active area of research in astronomy.


Do any of the stars you can see have planets around them?

Yes. To date scientists have discovered well over a thousand planets orbiting other stars. It is believe that a large portion of the stars in the night sky have planets.


Is our sun the only star that has planets orbiting around it?
