In roman mythology, neptune in greek known as poseidon, was known as the God of the sea, neptune has only been visited by the voyager 2on august the 25th 1989. neptunes blue colour is the result of absorption of red light by methane in the atmosphere, like other typical gas planets, neptune has very repid winds and confined to bands of latitude and large storms or vortices. Neptunes winds are the fastest in the solar system fron any other planets even including earth reashin a speed of 2000 km/h.=====

Like jupiter and saturn, neptune has a internal heat source whihc radiates atleast more then2 times as much energy as it recieves from the sun. As they may not show, neptune also has its own rings and one of the rings on neptune seem to have a curious twisted structure. Similar to uranus and jupiter, neptune's rings are very very dark but as the same, their rings are also unknown. Neptunes rings have also been given names, the outer most ring is called the adams whihc contains the three prominent arcs now named liberty, equality and fraternity, the next ring is unamed ring coorbital with galatea, then leverrier whose outer extensions are called lassel and arago, and then the faint ring called galle.=====

Neptunes magnetic feild is like uranus, oddly oriented and probably gernerated by its own motions and of the conductive material in its middle layer which n could possibly be water. To see neptune, you could simply use binoculars if you are able to know where exactly neptune is but if you want to see more specific things then you would have to use a telescope.=====
