There are two very good websites.\n\nhttp://solarsystem.nasa.gov/index.cfm\nhttp://www.nineplanets.org/

Leave Wiki for the other students to copy from, I would start at www.nineplanets.org  Easily one of the best solar system webpages out there, with tons of profesional links.  The other web based resource is www.astrnomynotes.com  This is basically an online textbook and has a few chapters of the solar system.\n\nMore importantly you should figure out the aspect you want to write about, as the "solar system" is just far too broad of a topic, narrow it down:\nPotential solar system paper topics:\nDefinition of Planet\nKBOs\nFormation of the solar system\nFormation of the moon\nComets\nLife of the sun\nSearch for life in the solar system\nMoons of Jupiter\nMoons of Saturn

As of April 18th, 2006 we know of 152 planetary systems other than our own containing a total of 176 planets.  This number grows fairly frequently as more and more observations are being made.

HOW MANY ARE KNOWN AT THE MOMENT?:\n\n8 in our solar system + 3 dwarf planets\n\n(Planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus & Neptune) (Dwarf Planets: 1 Ceres, 134340 Pluto, 136199 Eris)\n\nAND IN THE MILKY WAY GALAXY?\n\nSince pulsar planets were discovered in 1992 and 51 Pegasi b was discovered in 1995 we now know a total of 209 orbiting other stars:\n\nDetected by radial velocity method: 169 planetary systems, 197 planets, 20 multiple planet systems. \n\nDetected by microlensing: 4 planets. \n\nDetected by direct imaging: 4 planets. \n\nPulsar planets: 2 planetary systems, 4 planets, 1 multiple planet system. \n\nSee the full list in the Encyclopaedia of Exoplanets (third link) published and maintained by the Paris Observatory. Appropriately as it was the work of Urbain LeVerrier at that observatory that led to the discovery of Neptune in 1846.\n\nWHAT OF THE FUTURE?\n\nImproved detection rates can be expected in the coming years. Principally from CoRoT and the Kepler Mission: which being space-based will avoid the problems the earth's atmosphere creates for ground-based telescopes,\n\nCOROT:\n\nOn 15th November 2006 the CoRoT spacecraft arrived at the Baikonour launch base,\n\nCOROT (COnvection ROtation and planetary Transits) is a space mission approved and led by the French Space Agency (CNES) in conjunction with the European Space Agency and other international partners. The primary objective of COROT will be to search for extrasolar planets, particularly those of large terrestrial size. It is scheduled for launch on December 22, 2006, and will be the first mission of its kind.\n\nCOROT consists of a 27 cm in diameter afocal telescope with an array of spectroscopic detectors. The satellite has a launch mass of 630 kg, is 4.10 metres long, 1.984 metres in diameter and powered by two solar panels. \n\nA Russian rocket will lift the satellite into a circular polar orbit with an altitude of 827 km. Over its planned 2½ years mission it will observe perpendicular to its orbital plane meaning there will be no Earth occultations, allowing 150 days of continuous observing. During the northern Summer it will observe in an area around Serpens Cauda and during the Winter it will observe in Monoceros. Between this observing periods for 30 days, COROT will observe 5 other patches of the sky.\n\nThe probe will monitor the brightness of stars, watching for the slight dimming that happens in regular intervals when planets transit their primary. COROT will be sensitive enough to detect rocky planets, though only those several times larger than Earth; it is also expected to discover new gas giants, which comprise almost all of the known extrasolar planets.\n\nCOROT will also undertake asteroseismology. It can detect luminosity variations associated with acoustic pulsations of stars. This phenomenon allows calculation of a star's precise mass, age and chemical composition and will aid in comparisons between the sun and other stars.\n\nIn each field of view there will be one main target star for the asteroseismology as well as up to nine other targets. Simultaneously, it will be recording the brightness of 12,000 stars brighter than apparent magnitude 15.5 for the extrasolar planet study. It is expected that a few dozen planets will be found.\n\nTHE KEPLER MISSION\n\nThe scientific objective of the Kepler Mission, due for launch in 2008, is to explore the structure and diversity of planetary systems. This is achieved by surveying a large sample of stars to achieve several goals:\n\nDetermine how many terrestrial and larger planets there are in or near the habitable zone of a wide variety of spectral types of stars \n\nDetermine the range of sizes and shapes of the orbits of these planets \n\nEstimate how many planets there are in multiple-star systems \n\nDetermine the range of orbit size, brightness, size, mass and density of short-period giant planets \n\nIdentify additional members of each discovered planetar

Our solar system is not the only solar system in the universe.  There are hundreds and thousands and millions of other planets in the universe, and many are just like ours, but we don't know about them because we have never been able to get anything further than pluto to get a good specific picture of stuff.  In a general picture, though, we do know there are other galaxies in the universe

Here are some quick facts:\n\nhttp://www.sir-ray.com/ Enter the site, click astronomy then click on Space Dimensions & Planetary Facts (this site is excellent)\nhttp://www.dustbunny.com/afk/planets/\nhttp://www.kidzone.ws/planets/index.htm\nhttp://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/planetfact.html\n\nThese sites should be everything that you need~the first site should do it but the other three have little bits of information that might be useful~

Sol (our solar system) consists of 9 planets, over 140 moons (to date) and several small cosmic objects (comets and asteroids).\n\nMercury (0 moons)\nVenus (0 moons)\nEarth (1 moon)\nMars (2 moons)\nJupiter (63 moons as of 2004)\nSaturn (34 moons)\nUranus (21 named moons, 6 unnamed moons)\nNeptune (8 named moons, 5 unnamed moons)\nPluto (1 moon)\n\nThere have been discoveries of more "planetary objects" beyond Pluto, but they have not been declared to be planets in the same sense as the others.

I don't know about the other 8 planets of our system because no life has been found yet but there are other galaxies and it seems arrogant to believe we are the only ones made with so many possible environments for others.
