Gas giants have larger orbital radii compared to terrestrial planets. In our solar system, the four terrestrial planets—Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars—are located closer to the Sun, while the gas giants—Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—are found further out, with significantly larger orbital distances. This trend is consistent across other planetary systems as well, where gas giants typically orbit at greater distances from their host stars.
