Planet \Plan"et\, n. [OE. planete, F. plan[`e]te, L. planeta,
   fr. Gr. ?, and ? a planet; prop. wandering, fr. ? to wander,
   fr. ? a wandering.]
   1. (Astron.) A celestial body which revolves about the sun in
      an orbit of a moderate degree of eccentricity. It is
      distinguished from a comet by the absence of a coma, and
      by having a less eccentric orbit. See {Solar system}.

   Note: The term planet was first used to distinguish those
         stars which have an apparent motion through the
         constellations from the fixed stars, which retain their
         relative places unchanged. The inferior planets are
         Mercury and Venus, which are nearer to the sun than is
         the earth; the superior planets are Mars, the
         asteroids, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, which
         are farther from the sun than is the earth. Primary
         planets are those which revolve about the sun;
         secondary planets, or moons, are those which revolve
         around the primary planets as satellites, and at the
         same time revolve with them about the sun.

   2. A star, as influencing the fate of a men.

            There's some ill planet reigns.       --Shak.

   {Planet gear}. (Mach.) See {Epicyclic train}, under
      {Epicyclic}.

   {Planet wheel}, a gear wheel which revolves around the wheel
      with which it meshes, in an epicyclic train.
