The four gas giants; Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune; are composed of hydrogen and helium. It is believed that they have solid iron-based cores. The terrestrial planets; Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars; are smaller and are closer to the sun. They have cores, mantles, and crusts; with a relative paucity of hydrogen and helium.

Mercury has no atmosphere while Mars has a very thin atmosphere.</span>
