    Inner planets were created at higher velocities. Outer planets attracted helium, hydrogen, and other gasses and Gases escaped from inner planets and not from outer ones.

    Moreover, Boss says that even if Jupiter is proven to have a core, the planet still could have formed that core through disk instability. Enough dust could have collected and cemented together in the dense gas to form a core many times larger than the size of the Earth.

    Explanation:

    The same is true of most other objects in the solar system - except Jupiter. The gas giant is so big that it pulls the center of mass between it and the sun, also known as the barycenter, some 1.07 solar radii from the star's center - which is about 30,000 miles above the sun's surface.
