Which Planet Hass A Crushing atmosphere?

Venus and the four outer planets all have a very thick and massive atmosphere.


How is the size of the planet related to its thickness atmosphere?

There is no simple relationship, but the general tendency is that more massive planets have more gravitational attraction, and are able to maintain a denser atmosphere. The amount of atmosphere a planet has may also depend on it closeness to the Sun / to the planet's star, and to its evolutionary history.

How much more massive or larger would Mercury planet need to be in order to maintain and hold an atmosphere?

Mercury would need to be at least 1.2 times more massive to hold onto an atmosphere. The lack of a substantial atmosphere on Mercury is due to its low gravity, making it unable to retain gases for an extended period. Increasing its mass would help it to have enough gravitational pull to hold onto an atmosphere.


Why are extrasolar planets more massive than earth?

Most of the known extrasolar planets are more massive than Earth because massive planets are easier to detect. We have detected planets smaller than Earth.


What does massive?

Massive is planets that orbit the sun and have more mass


Is earth the most massive of the four inner planets?

Yes, Earth is the most massive of the four inner planets.


Which planets have huge storms or spots in their atmosphere?

Jupiter has a huge storm known as the Great Red Spot, which is a massive anticyclonic storm. Saturn has a hexagonal-shaped storm at its north pole. Both of these planets exhibit unique atmospheric features that contribute to these massive storms or spots.


Does the mass of a planets seem to effect how many moons it has?

Yes. The massive giant planets have far more moons than the less massive terrestrial planets.


What massive mean?

Why do outer planets have a thicker atmospheres than the inner planets?

Gravity is the force that keeps an atmosphere in place, surrounding a planet. Since there is no actual roof or container holding in the atmosphere, gas can always leak away into outer space, if it is not held in place by gravity. So the stronger the gravitational force, the more atmosphere can be retained. Large planets have a lot of hydrogen in their atmosphere, but hydrogen leaks away from smaller planets. Large planets attracted more gas when they were originally formed, as well. Remember that the solar system itself, and everything in it, originally condensed out of an interstellar cloud of gas and dust.


What are the planets from the most massive?

The most massive planets in our solar system are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Jupiter is the most massive planet by far, containing more than twice the mass of all the other planets combined.
