A quick summary: * A planet is a naturally formed object orbiting a star or the remnant of a star. * It is large enough so that its internal gravity has formed it into a nearly spherical shape, but not large enough to cause thermonuclear fusion. * It has cleared its neighborhood of other objects like asteroids or dwarf planets.
