I think what they&amp;#x27;re trying to say is it&amp;#x27;s a planetary system very similar to the Solar system. Announcing it as a new &amp;quot;planetary system&amp;quot; would sound much less dramatic, since we&amp;#x27;ve cataloged more than 700 of those.</text></comment>

But like my sibling comment said, they are trying to say this stellar system is a second &amp;quot;solar system&amp;quot; due to its similarities.</text></comment>
