Because it fits the scientific definition of a star:

"A Star, is large celestial body composed of gravitationally contained hot gases emitting electromagnetic radiation, especially light, as a result of nuclear reactions inside the star.

The sun is a star. With the sole exception of the sun, the stars appear to be fixed, maintaining the same pattern in the skies year after year."

Stars produce their own light through nuclear fusion, while planets do not emit light of their own but instead reflect the light of their host star. Stars are also much larger and hotter than planets. Additionally, stars twinkle in the night sky due to atmospheric turbulence, whereas planets usually appear as steady points of light.

The Heliocentric Theory has been proven by astronomers. By looking at and analyzing cycles and celestial objects, we have proven the Sun is the center of the Solar System.

A planet is in direct orbit around a central star, while a moon is in orbit around a large body (a planet) rather than in a direct orbit around a star. The moon orbits the planet, while the planet orbits the sun.


How can astronomers tell if a star may have a planet revolving around it?

There are two ways you can tell if a star may have a planet around it. One way is that the star would have a slight wobble in its motion across our sky. This is caused by the planet's gravitational pull on the star which would cause a slight movement or shift in its alignment. More easily detectable by modern telescopes would be a periodic reduction in the level of light coming from the star. The key is the period in which the light reduction occurs, which would offer a clue as to the period of the orbit of the planet around the star as it blocks light during its orbit.
