The four outer planets; Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are all much larger than the inner planets. These outer planets have no real surface, they are composed mainly of Hydrogen and helium gas, which gets thicker and thicker until the extreme pressures closer to the core of the planets change the state of the gases. The outer planets are much colder than the inner planets due to their distance from the sun, they take much longer to orbit the sun due to this distance. The outer planets are a lot larger than the inner planets.
What else can I help you with?
What are the general characteristics of the 4 outer and 4 inner planets?
The 4 inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are solid planets made of rock. The 4 outer planets are gas giants.
Why do you compare outer planets to inner planets?
Outer planets and inner planets are compared because they have distinct differences in size, composition, and characteristics. Inner planets are smaller, rocky, and denser, while outer planets are larger, gaseous, and have thick atmospheres. Studying these differences helps scientists understand how planets form and evolve in our solar system.
What characteristics set the inner planets apart from the outer planet and name the outer planets?
The inner planets are all rocky planets, whereas the outer planets are gas giants. Pluto is the exception. The outer planets also make 99% of our planets and are outside the asteroid belt.
Are inner planets known as Terrestrial planets?
Yes, inner planets are known as terrestrial planets because they are rocky in nature and have solid surfaces. The inner planets include Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, all of which have similar characteristics compared to the outer gas giants.
What do the outer planets have that the inner planets do not have?
