Name the new concept
Superior planets

Describe the concept
This concept more specifically categorizes planets in the solar system

A definition I found was:
“A planet whose orbit lies outside that of the Earth. The superior planets are Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.”

  • An Etymological Dictionary of Astronomy and Astrophysics, by M. Heydari-Malayeri

Describe where the concept fits within the existing hierarchy
Solar system planets > Superior planets

Please include any additional comments/feedback
This issue was created to split up #355
This is a remaining concept from the original suggestions from Dr. Nielbock
