So what do Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune have in common with the Earth that gives them a magnetoshere?
Is that the question?
I'm gonna guess........liquid cores?

Not just liquid cores but a particular type of circulation. The gas giants are thought to have cores of metallic hydrogen which generates the magnetic field.

Mars and Venus don't have magnetospheres (Like Earth's).
OK. :)

Gee, how do we know those other planets have magnetite? Let me guess cause they have magnetic fields? Can you say circular reasoning?
I don't know they have magnetite. :idunno:

Did you know Earth's inner core rotates faster than the outer core?
