Inner planets are characterized by their proximity to the sun and their rocky composition. They are also known as terrestrial planets as they have solid surfaces and are made up of mostly rock and metal. Inner planets include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. They are generally smaller and have shorter orbital periods compared to outer planets.
