Question

what are planets ????????????
​

Answer 1

A planet is a large object such as Venus or Earth that orbits a star. Planets are smaller than stars, and they do not produce light. Jupiter is the biggest planet in the Solar System. Planets are shaped like a slightly squashed ball (called a spheroid).

Answer 2

Answer:

The word planet means ‘wanderer’. This is because the planets do appear to wander listlessly across the night sky.  The stars also move across the sky east to west but relative to each other, they appear fixed. The planets, on the other hand, seem to move relative to the fixed stars in backward and forwards directions. This is why they were called Wanderers. We can define Planet as:

An astronomical body orbiting a star or stellar remnant that is massive enough to be rounded by its own gravity, is not massive enough to cause thermonuclear fusion, and has cleared its neighbouring region of planetesimals.
