Can you describe the surface of the Jovian planets?
The Jovian planets are gas giants and have no surface.
How do the surface materials of the inner and outer planets differ?
The inner planets' surface materials differ from the outer planets because the inner planets have rocky surfaces and the outer planets have gas surfaces.
What type of surface do terrestrial planets have?
the surface is solid
Why are the inner planets different to the outer planets?
The inner planets are all considered rocky planets in that under atmospheric layers, they have a rocky surface. The outer planets are made of gas and liquid, and are called gas giants. They have no solid surface. Also, all the outer planets have rings while the inner planets do not.
Why are inner planets also called rocky planets?
The inner planets, except earth, are made up of rocks. They have a hard surface. The earth would be one of these except we have water. The outer planets are gas giants and do not have a solid surface.

What were the results of the Apollo 11 mission?
There are two primary outcomes from the Apollo 11 mission. The first, and most important, was that man could travel to the moon, land on its surface, get out and walk around on its surface without sinking under the soil (a real concern many held prior to launch), get back into the spacecraft, rendezvous with the orbiting Command Module, and return safely to Earth. That was the primary, and most important goal, of the Apollo 11 mission. Less important, at least for this mission, was the return of samples and pictures and the placement and execution of some small science experiments on the lunar surface. These were all performed, and the science was important, but it was not the primary goal of the mission.
What type of surface do terrestrial planets have?
the surface is solid
What do jovian planets not have?
Jovian Planets do not have a solid surface to stand on.
Which planets are most like the earth's surface?
Of all the planets the surface of Mars is closest to being like Earth.
Which of the outer planets has a surface more similar to the inner planets than to the outer planets?
None of them do. All the outer planets are gas planets while all the inner planets are rocky. You might be thinking of Pluto. It has a solid surface, but it is no longer considered a planet.
Which of Jupiter's four largest moon's do scientists hope to explore in the near future?
scientist planning ice penetrating mission in europa at 2020 to find out what hide beneath its surface
What planets have the hottest surface?
earth

Why is the surface temperature of Venus higher than the other surface temperatures of the inner planets?
The surface temperature of Venus is higher than the surface temperatures of the other inner planets because of its thick atmosphere.
What is the surface comp of planets?
ans2, There are as many atmospheric and surface compositions as there are planets with atmosphere or surface.You'll have to be more specific if you want useful data.
