Detailed explanation-1: -Neptune, like Jupiter and Saturn, emits more heat than it receives. As a result, it has a substantial internal heat source. Neptune’s internal heat source contributes to vertical convection, extraordinary wind speeds, and the blue planet’s overall dynamics.
Detailed explanation-2: -Neptune is dark, cold, and very windy. It’s the last of the planets in our solar system. It’s more than 30 times as far from the sun as Earth is.
Detailed explanation-3: -Neptune, the eighth and farthest planet from the sun, has the strongest winds in the solar system. At high altitudes speeds can exceed 1, 100 mph. That is 1.5 times faster than the speed of sound. In 1989, NASA’s Voyager 2 spacecraft made the first and only close-up observations of Neptune.
