THE OUTER PLANETS Chap. 29, Sect. 3 OBJECTIVES: SWBAT… 1. Identify the physical characteristics of the outer planets. 2. List the major surface features of the outer planets.

THE OUTER PLANETS 1. AKA the Jovian planets, except Pluto. 2. Last 4 planets past the asteroid belt. 3. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune.

THE OUTER PLANETS 4. Largest planets; composed entirely of gasses (except Pluto). 5. Lack solid surfaces (again, except Pluto). 6. Rocky cores

THE OUTER PLANETS 7. All have rings and atmosphere, except Pluto. 8. All have moons.
