All outer planets are larger than Earth so they have greater gravity. Pluto is now counted as a dwarf planet.

Why do outer planets have more moons than inner planets?

The outer 4 planets have many more moons than the 4 inner ones. (Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Earth only have a total of three, whereas Jupiter and Saturn have more than 60 each.) The "outer planets" of our solar system (the 4 gas giants) are much larger than the "inner planets". They also have more space between their orbits, and therefore a larger number of small bodies (some of which were captured as moons). The gravitational effect of the Sun is lower, so satellites can orbit at greater distances without being destabilized.
