Could do the inner planets have lots of moons?
The inner planets do not have many moons because what could become moons is usually trapped by one of the outer planets gravitational pull, lost in the asteroid belt, or crashes into the inner planets.
How many moons does the planet vunus have?
Mercury and Venus have no moons. The rest do have moons in various quantities. The inner planets have 3 moons while the outer planets have maybe about 100 in total.
What do the outer planets have going around them?
The outer planets in our solar system have many moons orbiting around them. They also have rings, with Saturn being the most well-known for its extensive ring system. Additionally, the outer planets have a variety of spacecraft that have been sent to study them, such as the Galileo spacecraft for Jupiter and the Cassini spacecraft for Saturn.
Which characteristics is common to the four outer plants in our solar system?
They are all gaseous planets with rings systems and many moons.
What characteristics define inner and outer planets?
Inner planets are typically rocky, smaller in size, have shorter orbital periods, and lack rings. Outer planets are gaseous or icy, larger in size, have longer orbital periods, and possess rings and many moons. Additionally, inner planets are closer to the Sun, while outer planets are farther away.
Do outer planets have few moons or many moons?
many moons.
What has many moons inner planets or outer planets?
the inner plants have a total of three moons. our moon, and two moons of mars. Phobos, and Deimos. but the out planets have many more moons. Neptune has the least amount of moons out of all the outer planets. it has 13 moons. but, the other outer planets have way more. Jupiter even has 63. of course, there are probably many more moons still to be discovered. well, not for earth and mars. in total, the outer planets must have at least 100 moons.

Is a planet with many moons an inner or outer planet?
In our own solar system, the only planets with many moons are outer planets. It seems likely that if there were a large planet close to a companion star, the star's gravity would strip away any orbiting moons. However, we have no way of detecting the moons of any extrasoloar planets.
Which planets has less then 3 moons?
All of the inner planets; Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars have less than 3 moons, while all four outer gas giant planets have many moons.
What do most planets have revolving around them?
Most planets have at least one moon (or natural satellite), with the exception of Mercury and Venus, which have no moons. The larger outer planets have many moons, Jupiter alone has over 60 named moons.
Astronomers have found all the moons of the outer planets?
Astronomer have found many of the major moons of the outer planets, which are Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, and Neptune. However, they have not found all the possible moons associated with each of these planets. For example Jupiter has 50 known moons, and Saturn has 53 moons that are known so far.
What planets have the most amount of moons?
The four outer planets have many moons each, while the inner planets only have three between all of the, two for Mars and one in orbit around the Earth. The planet with the most is Jupiter, with 63 confirmed moons.
Astronomers have found all of the moons of the outer planets?
Its unlikely that all of the moons of the other planets have been found, but certainly all of the major moons have now been discovered. Some of Saturns named moons are only a few km across, so there are likely to be some more moons of this sort of size that have yet to be officially recognised.
How many moons do the suns have?
The Sun has no moons. Moons orbit Planets > Planets orbit the Sun.
