No because they do not have an atmosphere that will absorb the suns rays and trap it in like our atmosphere does.

Is Pluto different than the outer planets?

Yes Pluto is different than the outer planets in the following ways:Pluto has not cleared its orbit of asteroids and debrisPluto is not made of gasPluto is far smaller than any of the outer planets


What is the relationship between the use of fossil fuels and the greenhouse effect?

Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) releases long hidden carbon dioxide (CO2). This extra CO2 adds to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, producing an enhanced greenhouse effect.The combustion of fossil fuels such as car fuel releases carbon dioxide. Initially, any heat produced on earth will be released out to the outer space but excessive present of carbon dioxide will trap this heat onto the surrounding environment and not able to be excreted to the outer space. The trapped heat will increase the earth temperature and it contribute to the greenhouse effect. Prolonged greenhouse effect will cause global warming.


Give some useful applications of Greenhouse Effect?

well say the attmosphere was a blanket and the blanket had a hole in it. well the sunlight goes through that hole and the blanket closes the hole to were the sunlight cannot leave the attmosphere and that causes the greenhouse effect aka global warming


Are the outer planets and dwarf plants much bigger than the inner planets and dwarf planets?

Yes. The four inner planets: Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars and smaller than the four outer planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Earth is largest inner planet, and Neptune is the smallest outer planet. Neptune is around 14 times larger in terms of diameter than the Earth. The dwarf planets are all smaller than any of the actual planets.


Why do think a spacecraft would not be able to land on any of the outer planets?

The outer planets are gas giants, made mostly or entirely of gas, so either there is no surface to land on, or even if there is, it lies underneath such a large amount of atmosphere that the atmospheric pressure would crush any spaceship that tried to land there. However, the outer planets also have lots of moons, which would be very suitable places for spacecraft to land.

What other planets have greenhouse gases?

Two other planets besides Earth.Venus has a runaway greenhouse effect, with most of its atmosphere carbon dioxide, and a temperature of 460° Celsius.Mars has a very faint greenhouse effect, with a little carbon dioxide, but hardly any atmosphere at all.Saturn's largest moon, Titan, has a greenhouse effect, with large concentrations of methane.


Could the greenhouse effect occur on other planets?

The greenhouse effect is happening on any planet with greenhouse gas. Mars, as an example has greenhouse gases in it's atmosphere and has seen warming over the past hundred years similar to our warming trend. Venus, with an atmosphere of 96.5% carbon dioxide, has a runaway greenhouse effect which has caused the oceans to boil dry.


Do any of the outer planets have moons?

Yes. All four of the outer planets have multiple moons.


The four outer planets lie beyond what?

The outer planets lie beyond the asteroid belt.


Can you reside on any of the outer planets?

As of today no, but maybe in the future.


Where are the outer planets located in relationship to the sun?

They follow orbital paths which, like those of the inner planets, are centered on the sun, but the outer planets, without exception, are farther from the sun than any of the inner planets is.


Is there any planets in the outer solar system and what are their names?

The four outer planets but it depends what you mean by the outer solar system. If the boundary is set at 4 AU, you have Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

How are the inner and outer planets different?

There are a lot of differences between the inner and outer planets. First of all, they inner planets are also known as the "Rocky planets". THey are rocky, hence their name "Rocky planets". And the outer planets are also known as "Gas Giants." THey are mainly composed of gas, hence their name, "Gas Giants." Another difference is their mass. The outer planets have greater mass than the inner planets. In other words, they are heavier.The inner planets follow orbital paths which, like those of the outer planets,are centered on the sun. But the inner planets, without exception, are nearerto the sun than any of the outer planets are.

What is the difference of inner planets and outer planets?

The inner planets are rocky, and do not have any rings. They are all fairly small, with our planet, Earth, being the largest, then Venus, then Mars, then Mercury. Most of them have moons, and none have rings. The outer planets are made of gas, and are huge compared to the inner planets. Every single one of these outer planets have moons and rings. Jupiter is the largest, followed by Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.


Is there really any outer space?

Yes or why would we have space flights and other planets
