If by "like Earth" you mean habitable (that we could live on, without spacesuits, domes or other technological adaptations): there aren't any in our solar system, and none yet elsewhere that we know of. But scientists keep searching; the universe is a pretty big place, and odds are there are multiple other Earthlike planets out there somewhere.

How many planets do Kepler's laws work for?
All of them.
How many planets can a solar system have according to the nebular theory?
There is no maximum number, and "nebular theory" has been knocked for a loop by the recent discoveries of 400+ "extra-solar planets" - planets orbiting other stars. Classical theories predicted that planetary systems would be rare; however, it seems that every nearby star we've looked at recently has been discovered to have planets - LOTS of planets.
How many planets are there in India?
barrn island -active type of volcano-in andaman islands
What is the path planets travel?
Planets travel in elliptical orbits.
Which is the inner planet?
There are four planets called the "inner planets".Of those, Mercury is the innermost planet.From the sun the planets areMercuryVenusEarthMarsJupiterSaturnUranusNeptunePluto
How many stars in the milky way galaxy have earth like planets?
This is not known yet. Hundreds of planets have already been found outside our Solar System, but earthlike planets can, for the most part, not be observed with current technology.
What do terrestrial planets and earth have in common?
Neither of them have rings, and they also have impact crates from collisions of the planets with objects primarily made of rock 2nd Answer: Also the Terran (Earthlike) planets are rocky while the Jovian planets are mainly composed of different gases.
What are the inner plants called terrestrial planrts?
The inner planets are called terrestrial because they are Earthlike: small and rocky planets as opposed to the outer planets which are giant gaseous planets,The word terrestrial comes from the Latin word terra, meaning Erth.
How many planet in the universe?
that question cannot be answered but i can answer how many planets in the solar systems there are 8 planets these are: Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune to memorize it you could use this simple acronyms my very excellent mother just sent us nachos
How does the Kepler mission plan to detect Earthlike planets around other stars?
by observing the slight dip in brightness of the central star as the planet transits
Will we ever find life on other planets?
Well, I'm not sure but I read in a book that in year 2015 a spacecraft named Darwin will be launched to look for Earthlike planets. Onboard telescopes will then analize the light from the planets that might have been produced by living things.

How long would it take to build an atmosphere around Mars?
Mars already has an atmosphere. It is not known how long creating an Earthlike atmosphere because we do not have the ability to terraform planets and we do not know all of the challenges it might hold.
Is there a possible earthlike planet orbiting other stars?
possibly.
Could an Earth-like planet or a moon exist in orbit around a Neutron Star?
Yes, we have found evidence of planets orbiting neutron stars. A planet similar to Earth in size and mass could exist around a neutron star, but beyond that it would not be very Earthlike. Such planets probably form from the remains of the supernova.
Are the first four inner planets larger or smaller than earth?
From the Sun:Mercury is innermost and smallest (about the size of our Moon.)Venus is next and almost exactly the size of the Earth, just a shade smaller.Earth is next and it is - well- the Earth!Mars is the last of the rocky - Earthlike planets and it is smaller than Earth.See a picture comparing the sizes at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:5_Terrestrial_planets_size_comparison.png
