outer planet
Eris is an OUTER planet. The only inner planets are mercury, venus, earth and mars. An outer planet is not related to the size of the planet but rather the distance from the sun.
The planet that was an outer planet, but was more like an inner planet was Pluto because of its size. The planet Pluto is no longer considered to be a planet.
Yes. The four inner planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars and smaller than the four outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Earth is largest inner planet, and Neptune is the smallest outer planet. Neptune is around 14 times larger in terms of diameter than the Earth. The dwarf planets are all smaller than any of the actual planets.
The inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. The outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Our very own dwarf planet is Pluto. (Poor little Pluto. )
Inner planets are closer to the sun than the outer planets. Inner planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The outer planets are Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, and Jupiter (and maybe Pluto. The inner and outer planets are separated by a large distance and an asteroid belt. The inner planets are "rocky" the outer planets are gaseous (with the exception of Pluto.
Because it formed in the outer part (further away) area of the solar system. Also because it is past the asteroid belt between mars and Jupiter, therefor all planets past it is consiterd an outer planet
The inner planets are Rocky Terrestrial. The outer planets are Gaseous.None of the inner planets have rings. All outer planets have rings.NOTES:Jupiter - Largest planet ( spins quickly on its axis ). Has a red spot which is a huge storm that is 3x the size of Earth. Has 63 moons.Saturn - 2nd biggest planet. Lightest planet ( if enough water saturn could float in it ). Beautiful rings ( saturns rings are made of moons that were smashed because of saturns gravity. Has 62 moons.Uranus - Axis is at 97 degrees. Which it means it is rotating on its side. Has 24 moons.Neptune - One Neptune year lasts 165 Earth years!Like Jupiter, Neptune has a dark spot caused by a storm. Neptune's spot is smaller than Jupiter's -- it is only about the size of the planet earth. Has 13 moons.
Yes, the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are smaller than the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune). The outer planets are known as gas giants and are much larger in size compared to the inner terrestrial planets.
Because the outer planets are gas giants except for Pluto. Pluto is an outer planet because it is the object (planet) that kept interfering with Neptune's orbit. Pluto is one on hundreds of thousands of meteoroids that a around the size of our moon.
Neptune has a diameter of 30,685 miles.
Neptune is very much like Uranus in size.
No planet is the same as Neptune. Uranus is similar in size, but is quite different in its composition.
