No, just one - our sun. Our galaxy, on the other hand, contains between 100-400 billion stars.
Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar System so any of the other planets could fit inside a volume the size of Jupiter, some of them many times over.
Our galaxy has over 200 billion stars; many of them do have planets, and thus qualify as a "solar system". As to the total number, we will never know, as solar systems will live and die. As a rough guess, at least 50% of all stars should have planets - so that could be classified as a "Solar System".
Out of the planets in our Solar System, Jupiter has the most moons. It has 63 confirmed moons.
No. The planets make up about a tenth of a percent of the mass of the solar system. Not ten percent. Ten percent of the sun's mass would be enough to make a red dwarf star.
The planets orbit the sun in an anti-clockwise fashion if we were to view the solar system from over the north pole of the sun.
Yes, there are over 200 more planets outside the solar system, these planets are called extrasolar planets. There are also more then 170 solar systems inside of the Milky Way, on average astronomers find around 25 new planets a year.
There are 8 planets in the solar system: Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune However, there have been over 1000 planets discovered in the last 20 years orbiting other stars.
The gravity reaching out to the eight planets in our solar system from the sun is not enough to thrust all of them inside it, but enough not to let them scatter all over the region.

The number is always increasing, but at the end of 2011 is nearing 1000.In our solar system, there are 8 planets. Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune. There are a further five dwarf planets, including Pluto.Astronomers have discovered many more planets in other solar systems over more recent years, several hundred to date.
Planets found outside our own solar system are called exo-solar planets or exoplanets. These are in orbit around other stars. It's ver difficult to detect them due to the distances involved, but with modern techniques, over 500 have been confirmed.
yes they are. when the planets were first made, they crashed together and the astroids broke off the planets

Over 900 planets have been discovered orbiting other stars. These are called exoplanets.
yes , of corse the sun is older than 1000 years old because the earth is alot older then 1000 years!Answ2. The Solar system, Sol and the planets is approximately 4.5x109 years old.This may be established by radioactive dating methods.
The planet with 19 moons and over 1000 rings is Saturn. It is known for its extensive ring system and diverse collection of moons, including some of the largest moons in the solar system such as Titan and Rhea.
Earth is one of many planets. There are 8 planets in our own solar system and over 400 exoplanets found so far.
