Planets usually form when dust and debris around a star clump together through gravity. The clumps of debris will get larger and larger until they take on a spherical shape and form a planet. An object will become a true planet when it clears all the remaining debris from its orbital path. All eight planets in the solar system formed this way billions of years ago.
