With respect to the fixed stars, the Sun appears from Earth to revolve once a year along the ecliptic through the zodiac, and so the Sun was considered by Greek astronomers to be one of the seven planets (Greek planetes, «wanderer»), after which the seven days of the week are named in some languages.

Although the goal of Kepler is to find Earth - like planets, many other types of worlds will be found along the way.
