What is the largest terrestrial planet?
A terrestrial planet is one like Earth, Mercury or Mars, a solid, rocky planet-- not a gas giant like Jupiter. Earth is the largest one in our solar system, however larger planets have been observed outside our solar system that are thought to be terrestrial, such as Gliese 436 c.
Of the four planets closest to the sun which is the largest?
With a diameter of 12756 km, Earth is the largest of the four inner planets. Venus is the next largest inner planet after the Earth with a diameter of 12104 km.
Which is the largest terrestrial planet and what is its diameter?
The only "terrestrial" planet is earth. Earth's Diameterat the Equator: 7926.28 miles (12756.1 km). Earth's Diameterat the Poles: 7899.80 miles (12713.5 km). From geography.about.com. The largest planet in the solar system is Jupiter. Jupiter's diameter at the equator is about 88700 miles (142700 kilometers), which is more than 11 times the diameter of Earth.

How big is Jupiter in miles?
The diameter of the planet Jupiter is 88,846 miles. It is over 3 times as big as the planet Earth and it is the largest planet in our solar system.

Is earth 5th largest planet?
Earth is the fifth largest planet. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are all larger than earth in diameter and mass.
How much larger is the diameter of the largest planet planet than the diameter of earth?
The largest planet in our Solar System is Jupiter. How much larger it is depends on what criterion you use to measure. Its diameter is about 11 times the diameter of Earth. Of course, that means that its radius and circumference are also 11 times as large as the radius and circumference of Earth, respectively. Its surface area is over 100 times larger than that of Earth (just square the diameter ratio), its volume is over a 1000 times larger (proportional to diameter cubed). Jupiter's mass is about 300 times as much as that of Earth. Many planets around other stars have several times the mass of Jupiter, but in many cases, not much is known about their diameter. However, it is expected that a planet that has, for example, 2-3 times the mass of Jupiter will NOT have a much larger diameter, since its stronger gravity will pull it together.
