Why are jovian planets so cold?

Jovian planets are cold because they are located much farther from the sun than terrestrial planets like Earth. Since they receive less sunlight and heat, they have lower average temperatures. Additionally, the atmospheres of Jovian planets are primarily composed of cold gases like hydrogen and helium, which contribute to their overall cold temperatures.


Why are Jovian planets far away from the sun?

Because solar can absorb higher sun rays


What is one way in which the sun and planets are different?

They are different because they have different atmospheres to the Sun. The main difference is that the Sun is a star which radiates energy and the planets are cold bodies which do not produce energy.


Does the sun have a moon?

The sun has 8 or 9 major planets and thousands of smaller objects orbiting around it. Some of the planets have many moons. (eg Neptune has 13) It can have moons but so far all of the moons are to close to the planets to get caught in the sun's orbit.


How hot is it on Saturn?

Saturn's temperature is believed to be about -270 degrees Fahrenheit or -167 degrees Celsius, which is cold. It's so cold because its so far away from the sun. The hottest planets are the inner planets which consists of Mercury and Venus. Earth is in the Goldilocks zone witch is where it is not too hot and not too cold but the right temperature for life. Anything further away from the sun than the Earth is, is way below 0 degrees Celsius as mars is -250 degrees Celsius.
