Do outer planets have atmospheres?
Yes
Why is the atmosphere thick in the outer planets?
The outer planets have thick atmospheres because they are so big. The bigger the planet, the stronger the gravitational pull. This means that the bigger planets pull in more gasses, which creates a bigger, thicker atmosphere.
What are the outer plantes made out of?
The outer planets, also known as gas giants, are primarily composed of hydrogen and helium. These planets have thick atmospheres made up of gases like methane, ammonia, and water vapor. Beneath their atmospheres, gas giants have dense layers of metallic hydrogen and rock.
Which planets have a thick atmosphere?
Define thick - all 4 outer planets plus Venus have thicker atmospheres than Earth.
Explain why the outer planets did not lose the light gases in their atmospheres?
Outer planets like Jupiter and Saturn have stronger gravity due to their larger masses, which helps them retain light gases in their atmospheres. Additionally, the colder temperatures in the outer solar system reduce the speed of gas particles, making it more difficult for them to escape the planets' gravitational pull. These factors combined allow the outer planets to hold on to their light gases.
Do outer planets have atmospheres?
Yes
Do inner planets have thicker atmospheres than outer planets?
no
What are the atmospheres of outer planets?
its made out of jaffa cakes
What is the two main gases of the atmospheres of the outer planets?
amonia, hydrogen,
Why is the atmosphere thick in the outer planets?
The outer planets have thick atmospheres because they are so big. The bigger the planet, the stronger the gravitational pull. This means that the bigger planets pull in more gasses, which creates a bigger, thicker atmosphere.
Are space telescopes reveal many details of outer planets?
Yes they in fact do reveal some levels of the outer planets and their interior atmospheres.
Why are the farthest planets made of gas?
When the sun was young it released an intense solar wind. This prevented the inner planets from developing thick atmospheres like the outer planets. The outer planets, however, were spared from this fate, and were able to accrete large quantities of gasses.
What has the author Thomas W Scattergood written?
Thomas W. Scattergood has written: 'Chemistry of the outer planets' -- subject(s): Atmospheres, Outer planets
What are the outer plantes made out of?

What do you call the four outer planets in our solar system?
They are called the "outer planets." But also the "gas giants" because they all have thick atmospheres and no accessible surface.
Are all of the outer planets gaseous giants with thick atmospheres?
I don't think so.
What characteristic do all of the outer planets share?
All of the outer planets are large in size, low in density, and have very thick atmospheres made primarily of hydrogen and helium.
