How many planets are in our Solar System?
Answer 8
A solar system is a star and all of the objects that travel around it -- planets, moons, asteroids, comets and meteoroids. Most stars host their own planets, so there are likely tens of billions of other solar systems in the Milky Way galaxy alone. Pluto is now considered a dwarf planet and not technically a planet.
