Explore: Neptune Atmosphere

Neptune appear faintly blue. In contrast to the strongly seasonal atmosphere of Uranus, which can be featureless for long periods of time, Neptune's atmosphere

outer planets possess significant atmospheres. Titan, a moon of Saturn, and Triton, a moon of Neptune, have atmospheres mainly of nitrogen. When in the

planets are loosely based on knowledge about Uranus and Neptune. Without a thick atmosphere, they would be classified as an ocean planet instead. An
