Asked by April - Science Help

Why didn't the outer planets lose the lighter gases in their atmospheres?

I really need help if you could explain this to me. I'm begging you.
Answered by Meredith Grey
1. ) They have more mass, and thus more gravity to hold on to their atmospheres.
2. ) They are more distant from the Sun, so the solar winds that have stripped the atmospheres of Mercury and Mars, for example, down to practically nothing, are not as strong.

Thank you so much @Meredith Grey!
Answered by jenna nickerson
because the outer planets are made of gas so their atmospheres are making their weight stronger than inner terrestrial planets.

The outer planets do not loose gas because they are so big and they could hold all of the gas in the atmosphere

Mr. Bob, this name is inappropriate for this site. Most of the people looking for answers here are middle school and elementary children. They point of this site is to help other students. You have given younger students ideas they should not be thinking, and they may look up this name. The content of your text is also inappropriate. If this behavior continues, I am going to contact Jiskha personally. Please rethink the content of your text, and the name. Thanks.

The outer planets are bigger. Therefore they have more mass, meaning they have a stronger pull of gravity which is keeping the gas from floating away.
