Planets around stars can be large due to several factors, including the amount of material available in the protoplanetary disk from which they form. Larger planets, particularly gas giants, can accumulate significant amounts of gas and dust, allowing them to grow rapidly. Additionally, their size can be influenced by their distance from the star; those in the outer regions can attract more hydrogen and helium, leading to larger sizes. Lastly, gravitational interactions with other celestial bodies can also play a role in their growth and retention of mass.
What else can I help you with?
What planets has the most stars around it?
Because the stars are relatively so far away, all planets of this solar system have the same number of stars near them.
Does every planet revolve around earth?
No, none of them do. Planets revolve around stars, so all of the planets in our solar system orbit the Sun, our own star.
What planets are death stars?
A planets and stars are different things, so a planet can never be a death star.
Are all-stars planets?
The best possible answer is we don't know.Just a decade or so ago, astrophysicists believed that no other stars have planets. The first exoplanet discovered was Gamma Cephei b, in 1988. While its existence was questioned for more than a decade, it was finally proven in 2003.There are currently 840 Planets around 655 Stars, 128 of these are in systems with multiple planets; there are 2,712 Kepler candidates, and 2,756,217 Transit Survey Light Curves that could prove to be exoplanets as well.
Are globular clusters small asteroid-like bodies that formed the building blocks of the planets?
No, globular clusters are large groups of stars that formed together at the same time. They are much larger and contain thousands to millions of stars, unlike small asteroids, and were not the building blocks of planets.
Why have most new planets discovered around stars been so large?
Because the larger planets are easier to see, the smaller ones may be there, but not large enough for our modern equipment to accurately detect.
What planets has the most stars around it?
Because the stars are relatively so far away, all planets of this solar system have the same number of stars near them.
How are planets different from stars?
Mainly in that they have a smaller mass. To be a "star", an object would need to be able to start hydrogen fusion. This requires a certain amount of mass and pressure at the core - which in turn require a certain minimum mass.
Does every planet revolve around earth?
No, none of them do. Planets revolve around stars, so all of the planets in our solar system orbit the Sun, our own star.
Are new planets forming?
New planets are not forming in our solar system. When you get beyond Neptune, there is large grouping of stellar debris called the Kuiper Belt. The Kuiper Belt has enough material to become another planet, but it orbits around the sun too slowly for the material to combine. The planets formed by having asteroid-like rocks collide with one another, and the objects in the Kuiper Belt are spread out too far and don't have enough moment to form anything. There may be new planets forming around different stars. So far there have been around 800 stars found to have planets orbiting them, but there is no indication when those planets were formed. There may be new planets forming around different stars.
What planets are death stars?
A planets and stars are different things, so a planet can never be a death star.
How can you identify stars and planets?
Stars 'twinkle', planets do not. This is due to the proximity of planets, the light from which does not pass through so much dust and vary accordingly.

Why do astronomers a find it difficult to locate extrasolar planets with telescopes?
From our distance, they are close to the stars they orbit. Hope this helps! :) 5/3/21
What is different about a star from a planet?
Stars are bigger than planets until they finally collapse into dwarf stars. Stars are large enough to produce nuclear energy in their core, so they produce high amounts of heat and light.
Were stars formed before the planets?
Yes. Planets orbit around the stars, so the stars must have preceded the planets. Additionally, our concept of the "big bang" implies that the early universe was composed of 98% or more hydrogen, a percent and a bit as helium, and "everything else" as about 1%. All of the heavier solid elements were created in supernova explosions in the cores of massive stars.
When compared with most stars are planets brighter or smaller?
Well,planets do not have any light of their own so they are definitely not brighter and yes there may be some stars smaller than the planets but most of the stars are bigger than the planets . But on the whole the Space is not that much explored so that we can get any cumulative answer.
