The inner planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, are rocky terrestrial planets found closer to the Sun. They have solid surfaces, thin atmospheres, and are typically smaller in size compared to the outer gas giants. These planets have shorter orbital periods and are characterized by higher temperatures compared to the outer planets.
