What is the difference between inner and outer planets?
The four inner planets are smaller, denser and warmer than the four outer gas planets. The four gas planets don't have clear surfaces like the four inner rocky planets. Because they are further away, the out gas planets orbit the sun at slower speeds and at slower rates - taking much longer in general. The four outer planets have a very different composition to the inner planets.The inner planets and the outer plants are divided by the asteroid belt.The inner planets are small and comprised mainly of rock and metals.The outer planets are large and are comprised mainly of gases and ices.However, it was believed that other planets close to another star couldn't be gas giants, but the discovery of a "hot Jupiter" extrasolar planet whose mass is close to or exceeds that of Jupiter orbits within 0.05 AU of it's parent stars, about one eighth of the distance that Mercury orbits the Sun.the inner planets are rocky and within the aesteroid belt. the outer planets are made from gas and ice and are outside the belt.The inner planets are between the Sun and the Asteroid Belt, while the outer planets are farther from the Sun than the Belt.The "inner planets" are the four rocky or "terrestrial" (Earth-like) planets closer to the Sun. The outer planets are the four larger "gas giants".Inner planets : Mercury, Venus, Earth, MarsOuter planets : Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
Four good things about atmosphere?
It helps us eat , lets us travel the world , lets us explore other planets,and lets us breathe
What are the outer planets mostly made from?
Gasses and ice . (:
What does it mean to see beyond things?
To see beyond things figuratively is to what lies ahead. Ex: I can see beyond the ocean. i'm not sure if that's a good example, but you should get the isea.
What are the two planets give off more energy than they receive from the sun?
Here you go! I did not know this either...cool! I can tell you have an accent - maybe another language, so I searched it for you... http://www.nasa.gov/worldbook/planet_worldbook_update.html You will have to copy and paste the url...Good luck! The part you want to read is the first part "Planets," and the fifth or sixth paragraph says, "The outer four planets-Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune-are called gas giants or Jovian (Jupiterlike) planets. They have gaseous atmospheres and no solid surfaces. All four Jovian planets consist mainly of hydrogen and helium. Smaller amounts of other materials also occur, including traces of ammonia and methane in their atmospheres. They range from 3.9 times to 11.2 times Earth's diameter and from 15 times to 318 times Earth's mass. Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune give off more energy than they receive from the sun. Most of this extra energy takes the form of infrared radiation, which is felt as heat, instead of visible light. Scientists think the source of some of the energy is probably the slow compression of the planets by their own gravity." This is a NASA website, si is a credible source! Have fun! Jeannie
Which planet is not classified as a gas giant or a terrestrial planet?
Out of all the planets in our solar system, four are considered gas giants or Jovian planets. They are Saturn, Neptune, Uranus and Jupiter. The ones that are not gas giants are Mars, Mercury, Venus, and Earth.

Is there a planet beyond the milky way?
The Milky Way is the name for our own galaxy, so your question is, are there planets in other galaxies? While our technology is nowhere near good enough to detect planets in other galaxies, I think it is certain that those planets do exist.
Who is the author of Beyond good and evil?
Friedrich Nietzsche wrote Beyond Good and Evil.
What is a good question for Planets?
A good question would be the following answers:1.Why do we have planets and what do they do for us?2.Who are some of the explorers that found the planets and what did they use to find them?
Are the giants good?
Hell Yea remember they have 3 superbowls if they were bad they wouldnt have those 3 lombardi superbowl trophies and NYG is way better beyond better than the PHI Eagles, cowboys, and redskins
Are the ny giants good?
Yes

In Beyond Good and Evil who does Jade's voice?
The voice of Jade in Beyond Good and Evil was Jodie Forrest
What planets can you find in the Philippines?
The Philippines are a very good place to see all the planets.
What are the outer planets mostly made from?
Gasses and ice . (:
What are some opinions about the Giants football team?
They suck. They're good. There's some opinions on the giants.
