The outer planets take longer because they have a greater distance to travel.
It is neither it is actually a dwarf planet that is alone.
The planets all formed from disk of material that surrounded the sun when as it formed. Most of the material in this disk was composed of hydrogen, helium, and ices of water, ammonia, and methane. The solar wind of the young sun swept most of these lighter, more volatile materials out of the inner part of the disk, leaving behind the small portion of the material that was mostly rock. The gas was not swept from the outer solar system, so there was much more material for the outer planets to gather.
The inner planets are made of rock. The outer planets are mostly gas. The outer planets have bigger gravitational pulls while the inner planets have weaker ones. The inner planets are warmer and the outer planets are colder.
Meteors are not planets. They are tiny pieces of dust or dirt or ice, or small rocks that enter the Earth's atmosphere and start to burn enabling us to see them.

-- We call a planet 'inner' if it spends most of the time closer to the sun
than most asteroids. Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are inner.
-- We call a planet 'outer' if it spends most of the time farther from the sun
than most asteroids. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are outer.
Rings are mostly ice, dust, and astroids. The inner planets stronger sunlight sublimes the ice and the solar wind sweeps the dust out of orbit. Comets dont show much 'tail' out by Jupiter because the tail is all ice and dust.
There are four inner, or terestrial, planets of which Earth is the largest, but only slightly. Venus is nearly the same size while Mars and Mercury are quite a bit smaller.
Jupiter is almost 11 times the size of Earth and Saturn about 9; Uranus and Neptune are both 4 times Earth-size.
Remember that mass varies with the CUBE of the size, so mightly Jupiter is 318 times as massively as Earth. Earth, however, is the DENSEST planet, since it has a big iron core.
The terms inner planet and outer planet are only used for planets. Pluto is not in that category, so the term doesn't apply. But when was considered a planet, it was in the outer planet group.
Saturn is an outer planet. The outer and inner plantes are divided by the asteroid belt.
No, it is an outer planet.
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune is not inner planets. They are all outer planets.
Saturn is outside the Asteroid Belt. It is an "outer planet".
Saturn is an outer planet. It is an outer planet, the 4 inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars) are known as the inner planets because they are close to the sun. the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) are known as the outer planets because they are a lot farther away.
Saturn is an outer planet. The outer and inner plantes are divided by the asteroid belt.
No, it is an outer planet.
If by that you mean, weather its an outer or inner planet then Saturn is an outer planet...the 6th planet in our solar system.
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune is not inner planets. They are all outer planets.
Saturn is outside the Asteroid Belt. It is an "outer planet".
These planets are outer planets.
No, its an inner planet, the inner planets are, Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars, the outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
Saturn and Jupiter are Outer Planets and Mercury is an Inner Planet.
Saturn an outer planet because it is outside of the asteroid belt. If it is outside of the asteroid belt, then it is outside planet. Outer planets are also known as Jovian planets or "gas planets."
Saturn is an outer planet. It is an outer planet, the 4 inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars) are known as the inner planets because they are close to the sun. the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune) are known as the outer planets because they are a lot farther away.
There are 4 inner planets: Mercury Venus Earth Mars There are 4 outer planets: Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune There are 8 in all.
Mars is an inner planet. The are 3 others: Mercury, Earth, and Venus. the outer planets and Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto and Saturn. all of the outer planets and farthest from the sun and all have a ring around them.
