V1 A large spherical astronomical object that typically [[in orbit]]s a [[star (sky)|]]. The tag should be used when at least one planet is seen from outer [[space]] or from the surface of another nearby planet. This includes real and fictional planets.

Scientifically, there has always been some ambiguity as to what constitutes a planet, with some celestial bodies such as [[Pluto (planet)|]] and Ceres being considered at different times or by different people either as planets or as "dwarf planets". The International Astronomical Union (IAU) came up with a definition for a planet in 2006, meaning that the planets in our solar system are officially [[Mercury_(planet)|]], [[Venus (planet)|]], [[Earth (planet)|]], [[Mars_(planet)|]], [[Jupiter (planet)|]], [[Saturn (planet)|]], [[Uranus (planet)|]] and [[neptune (planet)|]], but the definition remains contentious.
