In our solar system, there are officially eight recognized planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. However, astronomers have discovered numerous other celestial bodies, such as dwarf planets (like Pluto) and various small objects in the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud. While the eight planets are the largest and most prominent, the total number of planetary bodies, including dwarf planets and potential undiscovered objects, could be much higher. Thus, while there are eight major planets, the overall count of planetary-like bodies is greater.
yes, because some dwarf planets are only as big as comets, whereas planets themselves take up much more space.
Many of the planets have more than one element. Two of these planets that have more than one element are Earth and Jupiter.
No. The only planets without a moon are Mercury and Venus all the other planets have anywhere from one moon to more than sixty.
Nobody knows for sure, really, but according to the number of planets found so far, it seems that there are probably more planets than stars.
There are more than 350 known planets in the milky way, with only 8 in our solar system.
there is only one sun in the solar system A Sun is just a star with more than 5 or six planets
There are four terrestrial, or rocky, planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. Of these planets, only Mars has two moons.
Actually, Saturn is the least dense of all planets, the only planet less dense than water, at 687.00 kg/m³.
Most of the known extrasolar planets are more massive than Earth because massive planets are easier to detect. We have detected planets smaller than Earth.
All planets have gravity, but some planets have more gravity that others. The amout of gravity is based on the size of the planet. Jupiter, for example, has much more gravity than Earth because it is bigger. Planents aren't the only objects that have gravity. Even your pencil has gravity, but it is such an extremly small amout that it really doens't make a difference.
no, it only has 1 while saturn has many more
Large planets have more gravity than smaller ones
