Why inner planets are closer to the sun than outer planets?

The inner planets are closer to the sun than the outer planets because of the way the solar system formed. When the solar system was still a swirling disk of gas and dust, the inner planets formed closer to the center where it was hotter, while the outer planets formed in the colder regions farther away. This distribution of planets based on temperature led to the inner planets being closer to the sun than the outer planets.


How are the inner and outer planets alike?

The inner and outer planets are alike in that they are all part of our solar system and orbit around the Sun. They also have varying sizes and compositions, with the inner planets being smaller and rocky while the outer planets are larger and gaseous. Additionally, they all have moons, but the outer planets tend to have more and larger moons compared to the inner planets.
