What are the two major ways that the terrestrial planets and the jovian planets differ?
The four inner planets are made of rock . The outer planets are made of various gases and condenced gases. Hydrogen being prominante.
Which planet is not a terrestrial planet?
The planets that are not classified as terrestrial are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. If you count Pluto as a planet then it would be a part of that list as well. Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars are the terrestrial planets. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are the gas giants. Pluto is a dwarf planet.
What are the three characteristics of a planet?
The three qualifications for a planet are: 1. It orbits the parent star. 2. It has hydrostatic equilibrium (roughly spherical shape) caused by the gravitational forces. 3. It has cleared its path of orbital debris. (This one is hotly contested.)
What are some cool outer planet facts?
Planets facts includes the ff: that planets does not emit visible lights by its own but instead shines by reflected lights. In the solar system, there are eight planets. There are four rocky planets ( Earth, Mars, Venus and Mercury). These planets are collectively called as the terrestial planets. Outer planets are the four major gaseous planets which includes Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus - they are collectively known as the Jovian planets because of their similarity to the planet Jupiter. They are also called gas giants. Neptune is the farthest planet from the sun
Is Mars the second largest planet?
no it is not. Mars is actually ranked 7th by size.

Are there more then 8 Planets?
In our own solar system, there are eight major planets, ten dwarf planets, two protoplanets, and thousands of minor planets (asteroids). There are also billions of planets outside our own system, but they shall not be named here (it would be impractical to try). Below is a list, in orbital order, of major objects in the solar system, as well as how many known major objects orbit them:Sol (sun) [18 planets, three asteroid belts, two protoplanets, one theoretical dwarf star]Mercury (terrestrial planet)Venus (terrestrial planet)Earth (terrestrial planet) [1 moon, Luna]Mars (terrestrial planet) [2 moons]Asteroid BeltCeres* (dwarf planet)Vesta* (protoplanet)Pallas* (protoplanet)Jupiter (gas giant) [66 moons]Saturn (gas giant) [62 moons]Uranus (ice giant) [27 moons]Neptune (ice giant) [13 moons]Kuiper Belt [asteroids, dwarf planets]Orcus+ (dwarf planet) [1 moon, Vanth]Pluto+ (dwarf planet) [1 planet, Charon, 3 moons]Charon+ (dwarf planet) [1 planet, Pluto, 3 moons]Haumea+ (dwarf planet) [2 moons]Quaoar+ (dwarf planet) [1 moon, Weywot]Makemake+ (dwarf planet)Eris (dwarf planet) [1 moon, Dysnomia]"Snow White" (2007 OR10) (dwarf planet)Sedna (dwarf planet)Oort Cloud [comets, asteroids]Nemesis# (red dwarf star, theoretical)*Orbits within Asteroid Belt+Orbits within Kuiper Belt#Theoretical, sort of like Bigfoot
