A “planet” traveling at the speed of light would need to be composed entirely of photons, and (assuming an Earth-sized relativistic mass) would have 5.37x10^41 J of energy. That’s around 2.3x the gravitational binding energy of the Sun, so I assume it would be obliterated, along with all of its planets.
Big flare, seismic waves propagating on the surface, and POOF.
probs a bit more than poof, if it were traveling at the speed of light
