What is a popular theory for the difference in atmospheres of the Jovian planets versus terrestrial planets?
◦ The terrestrial planets are too cold to retain anything but heavy gases.
◦ The Jovian planets are just bigger, so they trap more gases.
◦ High temperatures and solar wind in the inner planets allowed most of the volatiles to be driven off the terrestrial planets, but not the Jovian planets.
◦ The Jovian planets trapped most of the comets which carried the gases.
