Jovian planets are gas giants made mostly of hydrogen and helium, while terrestrial planets are rocky planets with solid surfaces. Jovian planets are much larger in size and have thick atmospheres, while terrestrial planets are smaller and have thinner atmospheres. Jovian planets have many moons and ring systems, while terrestrial planets have fewer moons and no rings.


What are the jovian planets vs terrestrial?

"Jovian" planets are considered to be mainly made up of various gases, and are also known as "gas giants". The Jovian planets are known as "Jovian" from the largest gas giant in the solar system: Jupiter. Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus (Haha, very funny) are all considered Jovian planets."Terrestrial" planets are thought of as rocky. A human being could maybe walk on its surface, in a goodspace suit.Terrestrial planets are planets like Earth. The terrestrial planets in our solar system are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars.I know I sound like a book, but so-be-it.
