Depends what type of Galaxy you're playing in.

There's two main forms of Galaxy at the moment (*no* flames please,
I'm speaking as I find).

Standard Galaxy will not give you ownership when you bomb a planet.
You have to ship colonists to gain the planet.

On the other hand, Galaxy NG will give you the planet when you bomb it
(albeit with 1/4 the population and industry). However, once a
planet's population reaches a certain level, NG doesn't give you the
planet. I don't know what that limit is, however, but I would be
interested in finding out.
