These are the small and rocky inner planets known as the terrestrial planets.
After Mars, there is an asteroid belt that separates the inner planets from the outer ones.
The outer planets are called the jovian planets, meaning huge gas giant.
- These planets in order are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

Separating the Terrestrial and Jovian planets is the infamous asteroid belt, which contains space dust and rocks ranging from microscopic to the size of Texas, and it's thought that these space rocks are too heavily disturbed by Jupiter's gravitational influence to coalesce and form planets.
