This changes the nature of the hydrogen in such a way that it is able to conduct electricity as metal does‚ so it is called "metallic hydrogen." This generates the planet’s magnetic field which is 20‚000 times stronger than Earth’s. This layer also makes up most of

Terrestrial planet’s surface is made of solid and Jovian planet’s surface is made of gas. The terrestrial planets are close to the sun and Jovian planets are further away from the sun. Last is terrestrial planets spin a lot less than Jovian planets. 2. How are the atmospheres of Venus and Mars different than the Earth
