Why are there (at most) eight planets in the Solar System? (Synopsis) [Starts With A Bang]
“I have announced this star as a comet, but since it is not accompanied by any nebulosity and, further, since its movement is so slow and rather uniform, it has occurred to me several times that it might be something better than a comet. But I have been careful not to advance this supposition to the public.” -Giuseppe Piazzi

But there are some very special properties that the inner, rocky worlds of our Solar System share with the Gas Giants, and none of the other candidates have them. As we are now learning the details about thousands of solar systems in our galaxy, we need to better understand just what makes something a planet and why that’s important.
