The inner planets are smaller, and do not have the dense atmospheres of the outer planets. The four inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) have warmer temperatures than the exteriors of the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune).
The "gas giants" have very hot lower atmospheres, caused by the intense pressure. The atmospheres are mostly hydrogen, but for Uranus and Neptune there are higher levels of water, methane, and ammonia. All of the gas giants have multiple moons and rings, the most visible being the ice rings around Saturn.
they are divided by inner and outer and the outer planet are the planets that have bigger planets.
The main differences between inner and outter planets are: Outter planets are all gas planets and are huge in size and have extreme heat temperatures, Inner planets all have a solid crusts, they are small in size and have lower temperatures than gas planets
The inner planets are relatively small and terrestrial, the outer planets are much larger and gaseous. Mercury is the only planet without an atmosphere.
The inner planets are known as "rocky planets" and the outer planets are known as "gas planets" or "gas giants" because they are mostly formed from gasses.
The inner planets are close in, the outer planets are further out.
the inner orbit faster
the inner planets are closest to the sun and the outer planets are farthest from the sun { Answered by a grade 4 student}
The distances between the inner planets is smaller than the distances between the outer planets.
The planets revolve in elliptical orbits. The inner planets have orbits 230 million km or less from the Sun. The outer planets have orbits 775 million km or greater.
terrestrial are planets that are the inner planets since there are made up of rock. but on the other hand. the outer planets are the gas giants. or the outer planets. they are made up of various gasses.
Inner planets are mostly rock and outer planets are mostly gas.
the inner orbit faster
The inner planets are closer together than the outer planets are.

The distances between the inner planets is smaller than the distances between the outer planets.
The distances between the inner planets is smaller than the distances between the outer planets.
The asteroid belt is in-between the inner and outer planets.
Location, location, location. Inner planets = Mars and inward (towards the sun); outer planets = Jupiter and outward (away from the sun).
As the names suggest, the inner planets are closer to the Sun than the outer planets.
The main difference is that the inner planets are smaller and are nearer the sun te outer planets are after the earth starting with Mars and ending with Pluto.
The planets revolve in elliptical orbits. The inner planets have orbits 230 million km or less from the Sun. The outer planets have orbits 775 million km or greater.
The inner planets are small, the outer planets are huge in comparison.The inner planets have rocky surfaces, the outer planets are gas giants.All of the outer planets have rings. None of the inner planets does.All of the outer planets have several moons, some of them quite large.
