Pluto is different because?
Pluto is because it is small ,and its not a gas giant like the other four large planets.
How is Pluto different from other gas planets?
Pluto is not a planet anymore, it has been reclassified as a dwarf planet since 2006. It is very different from the four gas giants, much smaller and less massive. It has a solid, well defined surface, unlike the gas giant planets.
Why does Pluto appear different from the gas giant planets?
Because Pluto is not a gas giant. It's a very small dwarf planet.
How is Pluto different from the gas planets?
Pluto is not a planet anymore, it has been reclassified as a dwarf planet since 2006. It is very different from the four gas giants, much smaller and less massive. It has a solid.
Is Pluto different than the outer planets?
Yes Pluto is different than the outer planets in the following ways:Pluto has not cleared its orbit of asteroids and debrisPluto is not made of gasPluto is far smaller than any of the outer planets
What are your solar systems gas planets?
The gas giants are these planets i named here, Jupiter,Saturn,uranus,neptune if Pluto was still a planet it would not be considered as a gas giant Pluto 1.Pluto is small 2. Pluto is past the kupiter belt that's in between neptune and Pluto there are your gas giants
Does all planets have a ring?
no, only gas planets have rings except Pluto
What other things are there in the Milky Way Galaxy besides planets?
pluto,asteroids,stars,comets and dwarf planets Stars, gas, black holes.
What is the difference between the gas giants and Pluto?
Pluto differs from the other outer planets in many ways, which is why it is no longer a planet. For example, it isn't a gas giant like the other outer planets. It isn't gassy and is relatively small. Pluto is made out of rock and doesn't have a thick gassy atmosphere like the Jovian planets; it has an icy atmosphere that melts only when near the sun to form an "atmosphere". Pluto doesn't have a quick, rapid spin on its axis like the gas giants. The Jovian planets take only a few hours to make 1 spin on its axis. Pluto takes a few days to spin 360 degrees on its axis. The gas giants all have rings, but Pluto does not. Pluto also has an elliptical orbit more like an asteroid or comet than a planet or gas giant. Pluto is considered a "dwarf" planet since it is small and found in the Kuiper Belt (asteroid belt). Finally, Pluto has only one moon, large compared to Pluto, and the gas giants all have a lot of moons which are small compared to the gas planets.
Are all of the outer planets gas planets?
The outer planets include: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto (a dwarf planet). They are mostly huge (besides Pluto) and mostly gaseous.
What are some differences between Pluto and the gas planets?
Pluto is a dwarf planet located in the Kuiper Belt while gas planets (like Jupiter, Saturn) are made primarily of hydrogen and helium. Gas planets are much larger in size and have thick atmospheres, while Pluto is smaller and composed mostly of rock and ice. Additionally, gas planets have rings and numerous moons, whereas Pluto has only five moons and no rings.
Why is Pluto different from the other planets?
Since it was discovered in 1930 by Clyde Tombaugh, many astronomers have felt uneasy about Pluto being called a "planet" for three reasons: (a) Pluto, with a diameter of 2275 km, is very much smaller than any of the other planets of the Solar System; in fact, it is only about two-thirds the size of our Moon. (b) Its highly elongated orbit is greatly tilted at a sharp angle to the orbital planeof the other planets; in other words, all the other planets revolve around the Sun at almost the same plane. (c) Furthermore, it is the only planet with an orbit that intrudes to the orbit of another planet (that of Neptune).The other outer planets are very large and gaseous. Pluto is very small, and doesn't have as much gas.
