The Outer Planets
• The four planets farthest from the Sun: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
• Also called the “gas giants” and the “Jovian planets”
• Larger than the inner planets
• Surfaces are made up of gases
• Separated from the inner planets by an asteroid belt

JupiterMoons: 62Rings: 1• Axis 3• Fifth planet from the Sun• A gas giant• All other planets could fit into it• Made of mostly 90 % hydrogen
and helium with no solid surface
• Solid Core- Metallic Hydrogen• Atmosphere is cold- -150
degrees Celsius • Its Great Red Spot is bigger
than Earth, 300 Years old• Clouds change color daily• 4 Galilean Moons• 12 years to orbit around the

UranusMoons: 27Rings: 13Axis : 98
• Atmosphere is mostly liquid hydrogen and helium with a small amount of methane
• Third-largest planet• Very thick atmosphere• Very cold -200 degrees Celsius • Giant gas planet• Cold methane gas makes it
look blue-green• Orbits on its side• 84 Years to orbit the Sun.
