SPACE — Our Solar System consists of eight main planets. Among these planets there are those called gas giants or often also called Jovian planets.
What is Jovian? Reporting from Space, Jovian or gas giants are large planets that consist mostly of gases, such as hydrogen and helium. These planets have relatively small rocky cores.
The gas giants of our solar system are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. These planets form a group known as the Jovian planets.
According to the University of Colorado at Boulder, the term Jovian means “Jupiter-like”. Although several probes of the solar system have revealed that gas giants such as Uranus and Neptune are very different from Jupiter, the descriptive term Jovian still exists.
The term Jovian is also used to describe Jupiter-mass planets found outside our solar system (exoplanets or exoplanets).
The solar system’s four gas giants are on the outskirts. The planets pass through the orbit of Mars and the asteroid belt. However, these planets are quite different from each other.
Jupiter and Saturn are much larger than Uranus and Neptune. Jupiter and Saturn, vs. Uranus and Neptune have somewhat different compositions.
Although there are only four Jovian in our solar system, astronomers have discovered thousands of exoplanet gas giants using many telescopes.
