The word ‘planet’ has been derived from the word ‘planetai’ which is named as a Greek word. (Option c)

• The Greek astronomers coined this term and stated that 'planetai' means objects like stars that move across the sky.
• The term includes not just planets but also stars, asteroids, satellites, etc.
• It includes a good range of celestial bodies that are star-like.
• The word 'planetai' stands for things that wander and thus, for bodies that wander in space.
