Question: How many planets are there?


There are millions of planets in the universe and no one knows the exact number of planets. However, we do know how many planets there are in our solar system.

Let's count them up starting with the one closet to the sun and moving away. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. That makes the total number of planets in our solar system eight.

If you learned about planets in school many years ago, you may have learned that it was nine planets. However, Pluto is no longer a planet. Thus, now there are eight planets in our solar system.
