okay....now to answer your question :
there is a lot of debate on as to how to define a planet!!! n it aint no joke!!!!!
people are realy confused......bcoz some of the so called comets also revolve around the sun.....now the question is would they be considered planets or comets?!

science is what is decided.....mostly.....n not really what is!!!!

Their were 9 but according to the latest info Pluto in no longer a planet but a star. so I've heard. they did find a new one but their not sure if it a planet or an asteroid. so were back at 9 not counting Pluto

I say 8. Pluto being a planetoid, as well as the latest discovery (since it's bigger than Pluto, but still well smaller than the other planets). However, it's all symantics, and it hardly matters what we call them; they're still there either way. You know, a rose still smells as sweet no matter what the name.

Latest discovery is Sedna (about the size of our moon). I am not sure whether debates were settled and we have accepted it as the 10th... I believe it's still debatable.
There are lots of bodies roaming around the space after Pluto.
PLUTO isn't a DOG.

The namse of the planets are:
Mercury
Venus
Earth
Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
Uranus
Neptune
Pluto
That makes 9. If a new planet has been discovered that I'm not aware of, that would bring it up to 10.
