outer planets
In the outer Solar System are the four remaining planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Made primarily of gasses these planets are called gas giants. Gas giants are massive and consist of a thick atmosphere and a dense molten core. Because the gas giants aren't made of rock and solid matter they don't have solid surfaces like the terrestrial planets. Therefore landing on one would be impossible.
