Welcome to Out of This World Tours!
Today's unique tour of the solar
system includes breathtaking views of
the four outer planets, commonly
called gas giants..
Our solar system consists of eight planets, one sun, one dwarf planet, an asteroid belt, and many
moons. The sun is in the middle of our solar system. Next come Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars.
These are the small and rocky inner planets known as the terrestrial planet. After Mars, there is an
asteroid belt that separates the inner planets from the outer ones. The outer planets are called the
jovian planets, meaning huge gas giant. These planets in order are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and
Neptune. Pluto comes after Neptune, but it is no longer considered a planet. It is now a dwarf planet.

The idea of what exactly constitutes a planet of the solar
system has been traditionally the product of historical
and cultural consensus.

Ancient sky gazers applied the term planet to the seven

celestial bodies that were observed to move appreciably
against the background of the apparently fixed stars.

They have been studying our solar system for centuries

and then after they will findings are quite interesting.

Various planets that form a part of our solar system have

their own unique geological features.
