io9 linked to a fascinating study that says our solar system may be home to not just 9 planets but hundreds if not thousands of planets. If proven true this would change much of our thinking around solar systems. Even science fiction would be changed as I cannot remember reading a story involving a system of more than a dozen or so planets. We have always imagined solid land to be a scarce resource, planets for life to be fought over. From scarcity to abundance in one short study.
