Is our sun the only star that has planets orbiting around it?
No. Other stars have been found to have planets orbiting them.
How many planets have been discovered orbiting other stars besides the sun?
45. It's a lot more than that now. It's into the hundreds.
Have astronomers detected any Earth-sized planets around normal stars yet?
Yes, astronomers have detected Earth-sized planets around normal stars. These planets are known as exoplanets and have been discovered using various methods, such as the transit method and radial velocity measurements.
Do all the planets have smaller planets orbiting them?
No. Planets orbit suns, while moons orbit planets. Planets do not orbit planets.
Dwarf planets in the milky way?
No one knows. Astronomers are scanning the visible stars of our own Milky Way galaxy for planets orbiting faraway stars, but such planets would have to be nearly the size of Jupiter to be detected at such distances
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.
Are planets outside the solar system?
A solar system comprises a star (or combination of gravity bound stars) and their orbiting planets. We think the majority of stars are solar systems an we have detected planets orbiting stars other than the Sun. However in the process of forming a solar system we believe that planets my be permanently ejected from orbiting their stars and flung off into interstellar space. These planets would therefore indeed be outside any solar system.
Where are the planets found?
Orbiting stars. We know of eight planets orbiting our Sun, and we know of over 300 planets orbiting other stars.
Planets without solar systems are called?
Planets not orbiting a star but instead orbiting the galactic center are referred to as rogue planets, or nomadic or interstellar planets.
Are there ant planets orbiting gemni?
There may be planets orbiting stars in the constellation Gemini, but planets do not orbit whole constellations.
What is a series of planets orbiting a star?
A series of planets orbiting a star is called a Solar System
What must astronomers do to view planets directly?
