Is it true that there is 11 planet as the Muslims say ..?

I'm pretty sure he's referring to 11 main planets in our solar system, not as a whole.\n\nBelieve it or not, many of the predictions made by the Koran have turned out to be true, or at least to a certain extent. It does say that the big bang did happen, it predicts the existance of certain nebulae by their description, and Islamic astronomers were considered to be the best way before the times of of Kepler, for example.\n\nA lot of religions, especially Islam, make predictions based on science. Islam literally loves science and it says that there can be a unity between science and the belief in Allah/God without altering data.\n\nSo yeah, it's entirely possible that there are 11 planets in our solar system. Did we not just discover one hiding around Pluto? \n\nWe always focus on things really far away when sometimes we should stick to our own turf. But yeah, I think the Koran is correct. Right now we're totally sure of 9, I wouldn't be amazed if we found two more hiding around.

BOB:I EDITED IT. I'M LOGGING OUT. TYPE YOUR QUESTIONS. I'LL TRY TO EXPLAIN THEM LATER.\n\nHey "Bob". Now, you need to know that the Koran is poetic. God also said that he kept the planets not colliding with each other. But we know that it is caused by gravity.\n\nGod also said that He is closer to us than the jugular vein. There is a hadith that said that He can ve contained in a pious slave's heart. Now all these references are poetic.\n\nThere are other translations, such as Pickthall's, that translated the word into "heavens".\n \nAccording to Yusuf Ali's translation, it is referred as "rain".\n\nMaybe, just maybe, that He was referring to comets and meteors. Maybe He said "the sky" because 1400 years ago, Arabs didn't know about comets and meteors. The verse also states that it can fall by His leave, His power, it can fall. There are records that meteors have hit the earth. But this is just my opinion.\n\nEDIT: Punishment for satan is in hell. Those verses are talking about the punishments waiting for satan in hell. The words did not say comets, but FIRE.\n\nBesides, you haven't stated your thoughts on the other translations by Pickthall or Yusuf Ali.\n\nEDIT:Oh, wait. I remembered your point of "air falling on earth" thing. Now, as you read it, you do realise that the verse states:\n\n....and the ships that sail through the sea by His Command?...\n\nIf there was a storm or strong wind, rain, etc (the sky falling, as if there was heavy winds, as described poeticly),surely the ship's sailing was to be affected and face possibility of shipwreck?

Yes there are.  They have been here for thousands of years.  Some come and go, others stay.  Two such species look almost exactly like us because they are believed to be the ones who actually "created" us.  You should read the Earth Chronicles written by a group of archaeologists.  It  better explains it than I can in such a short space.  There are 7 books total beginning with "The 12th Planet" by Zecharia Sitchen.

Unknown. We don't even know for certain how many there are now. There's at least three, but some scientific research indicates there may be as many as 11.

there hasn't been any found yet.... but... the possibility of life on other planets is very  high....  :)

There are theoretically countless planets, because there are countless stars, and a countless number of those will have a planet the same distance as ours. So there has to be countless other life forms out there.. the problem is, is that space is so bloody huge that the distance and time it takes to get anywhere far outways the task of actually doing it ( for other advanced lifeforms ).. And the chances that anything would choose to come our way is pretty bloody remote. But don't let religions lead you into believing we are the only lifeforms, that would be naive

You are only supposing. Let's get real. The reality is that God in His wisdom has created the universe. He created human beings in whom He has delight. As Master architect He knew the most conducive planet to keep this set of creation called human beings or Man. Science also tells us that the only habitable planet is the Earth. Planets closer to the sun are too hot. Planet beyond the earth farther away from the sun are too cold. No beings sharing the same nature as Man live in the universe apart from the earth. And know this that God has only ONE begotten Son. Other children God has are here on earth. They are the adopted children through faith in Jesus, the only begotten Son. They share the same nature with Jesus through conversion, rather than being cloned. They are the true Christians, You can call them the followers of Christ or the little christs.

The nine planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune(sometimes Pluto), and Pluto(sometimes Neptune).

In space probably not, on another planet almost certain. Look in the sky at night there is something like 100 billion stars that we know of. If each star has say 5-10 planets orbiting it that means there are about 500 billion to 1 trillion planets out there. How can any logical person believe that were are the only 1 that can and does support life?

The new things they discovered are Sedna and Quaoar. So there could be 11 planets\nThe planet Quaoar  is the 11th  planet in the meridian solar system . Its orbit is different than the other planets in our solar system.  The surface of Quaoar is barren it consists mainly of hard rock and ice there is a light atmosphere around the planet Quaoar but it's not fit for humans. There are no life forms on the surface of Quaoar it is a dead planet and you could say the planet Quaoar is a large rock trapped in the darkness of the Kuiper belt in a orbit around our sun. \n\nThe planet Sedna is the second most reddish planetary body in the Solar System, after Mars. Although inclined by only around 11.9 degrees from the ecliptic where the eight major planets orbit, Sedna's distant orbit is extremely elliptical indicating that its formation and orbit may have been influenced by by a passing nearby star during the early years of the Solar System, when Sol formed out of a molecular cloud with many other closeby stars around 4.6 billion years ago. There is indirect evidence (an unexpectedly slow 40-day rotation) that Sedna has its own moon, which astronomers hope to confirm with the Hubble Space Telescope (more information and images from NASA. The icy object will move closer to the Sun over the next 72 years -- to 76 AUs of Sol -- before receding back towards the inner Oort Cloud. \n\nThis is about their discoveries: http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2005/29jul_planetx.htm\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/3511678.stm

NINE, I think senda is not the 10th planet (because of its small size). Nine planets are:\n\nMercury(Roman god of thieves)\nVenus(God of beauty)\nEarth\nMars(God of War)\nJupiter(Supreme Roman god)\nSaturn(God of agriculture)\nUranus(Ruler of the heavens, father of the Titans\nNeptune(God of the sea)\nPluto.

Pork isn't really a Muslim's thing but I bet they will get into Heaven way before some hateful girl that just wants to rile people up. \nOne Planet=One People

Seriously, this is funny. Anyhow, there is absolutely no way of knowing how many planets exist in the entire universe as the universe as we know it is far to huge for any of our technology to fully explore. \n\nAnyhow, please stick with the topic. This has absolutely NOTHING to do with computers.\n\nThanks!

This is a highly debated question.\n\nFrom a religious aspect, many Christians believe human life is unique.  Hindu scriptures tell of many planets with many different life forms.  I am not familiar enough with other scriptures to hazard a guess.\n\nThe only scientific arguments I am aware of follow a probabilistic argument.  Unfortunately these fall into the same two camps.  "If there were life we would know by now."  Or the argument estimating that in a universe of our size, there would probably be x number of earth-like planets, with a certain percent evolving into civilizations capable of interstellar communication, and it is only a matter of time, before we hear from one.  SETI is one project I know of  searching for Extraterrestrial Intelligence.\n\nPersonally, I think that if such life exists, it may be so alien that we would not recognize it as all.  I also hope we get our act together, before we suffer intergalactic embarrassment.  Let's learn to get along with one another first, before embracing our alien brethren.

i don't know anything about this book or author.  it is bogus so forget it.\n\nthere is one star (sun), eight planets (mercury, venus, earth, mars, jupiter, uranus, and neptune), hundreds of dwarf, ball-shaped bodies ("1 ceres", "134340 pluto", and "136199 eris" for example), and tens of thousands small irregularly-shaped bodies in the solar system, and there is no hint of another star or any more planets.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrasolar_planet\nhttp://exoplanet.eu/catalog.php\n\nin 2006,  astronomers found evidence for a planet orbiting a star 21,500 ± 3,300 away.  the star is cataloged as OGLE-2005-BGL-390L.  the planet, OGLE-2005-BGL-390Lb, is 5.5 earth masses, but astronomers have also found more than 200 others.

Right now there are officially 9.  Depending on what we decide in the next year or so that number will change to 8, stay 9, go to 10, or even larger.  An object larger than Pluto has been found, but we have not granted it official status as a planet.  Don't expect this issue to be resolved any time soon, we've more or less "tabled" the issue until our general meeting in August.
