Quick Answer
A gas giant is a large planet made mostly of hydrogen and helium, with no well-defined solid surface.
The Full Story
The Solar System’s gas giants are Jupiter and Saturn, though Uranus and Neptune are often grouped separately as ice giants. Gas giants formed farther from the Sun, where cold temperatures allowed large amounts of gas and ice to accumulate. They have thick atmospheres, powerful winds, and many moons. Jupiter is the largest planet in the Solar System and is mostly hydrogen and helium by mass.
