∙ 15y agoThe distance between the inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) is comparatively smaller than the distance between the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) in our solar system. The inner planets are closer to the Sun and each other, while the outer planets are much farther apart due to the gap between the terrestrial and gas giant planets.
The distances between inner planets are relatively close compared to the distances between outer planets. For example, the distance between Earth and Venus is around 25 million miles on average, while the distance between Earth and Mars can vary from 34 million to 250 million miles due to their elliptical orbits.
Distances between outer planets are greater than distances between inner planets in our solar system. The outer planets are much farther from the Sun compared to the inner planets.
The inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars) are closer together compared to the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) in our solar system. The inner planets have shorter average distances between each other, resulting in a more compact grouping compared to the outer planets.
The distances between inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) are much smaller compared to the distances between outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune). The inner planets are closer to each other, with relatively small gaps between their orbits, while the outer planets are much farther apart, with larger gaps between their orbits.
The outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) are larger and mostly composed of gas, while the inner planets are smaller and rocky. The outer planets are also much colder, have more moons, and are located farther from the Sun compared to the inner planets. Additionally, the outer planets have ring systems, while the inner planets do not.

No. They are much greater.
Inner planets differ from outer planets because they have rocky core (excepting Pluto), and the are much smaller than outer planets, which are bigger and take more time to orbit Sun than inner planets because of their location. Outer planets are farther from the Sun than inner planets.
The distances between inner planets are relatively close compared to the distances between outer planets.

The distance between inner planets is much smaller compared to the distances between outer planets. Inner planets such as Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are relatively close to each other, while outer planets like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are much farther apart. This is due to the difference in their orbits and the spacing in the solar system.
The inner planets listed in order from closest to the sun are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars. They are called the inner planets because they are all within 1.52 AU of the Sun, whereas the Jovian planets are at a distance of 5+ AU. One AU is equal to the average distance between the Sun and the Earth or 93,000,000 miles.
Distances between outer planets are greater than distances between inner planets in our solar system. The outer planets are much farther from the Sun compared to the inner planets.
They have rocky surfaces.
distances are greater between outer planets
The distances between the inner planets is smaller than the distances between the outer planets.
The main difference between the orbits of inner and outer planets is their distance from the Sun. Inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars) have shorter orbits and are closer to the Sun, while outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune) have longer orbits and are farther away from the Sun. Additionally, outer planets are larger and predominantly composed of gas and ice, while inner planets are smaller and have rocky surfaces.
