Strictly speaking 8 planets. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus & Neptune.

The most found around a ExtraSolar star is 5 around the star 55 Cancri A.

The star is a yellow main sequence star of spectral type G8 V, with 0.95 solar masses and a diameter of 1.152 solar diameters.

It is actually in a binary system with 55 Cancri B which is a very small Red dwarf with 0.13 solar masses, 0.3 solar diameters and a separation of 1,000 AU.

The planets are :-

  • 55 Cancri Ae - Mass=0.034Mj - Semi Major Axis=0.038AU - Orbital Period=2.81705days - Eccentricity=0.07
  • 55 Cancri Ab - 0.824Mj - 0.115AU - 14.65162days - 0.014
  • 55 Cancri Ac - 0.169Mj - 0.240AU - 43.93days - 0.086
  • 55 Cancri Af - 0.144Mj - 0.781AU - 260days - 0.2
  • 55 Cancri Ad - 3.835Mj - 5.77AU - 5218days - 0.025

Just a small note the planets are named according to when they were discovered and follow the internationally recognised format of the star name followed by the lower case b for the 1st found, lower case c for the 2nd and so on.

How many planets orbit a star?

The number of planets that orbit a star can vary widely. In our solar system, there are eight planets orbiting the Sun. However, many other stars in the universe have been found to host multiple planets, with some systems containing as many as seven or more. Overall, discoveries from exoplanet research suggest that most stars may have at least one planet orbiting them.
