Climate Change And Its Effects On Human Civilization

Neptune has 14 different moons. Neptune’s largest moon is called Triton. Triton is the only large moon in the solar system to orbit in the opposite direction to its planet’s rotation, this is known as a retrograde orbit. The distance of its orbit is 354,759 km. Its orbit period takes 5.9 days (retrograde). Triton was discovered by William Lassell. Neptune has 5 rings. Neptune is very cold compared to Earth. It is -214 degrees Celsius. Neptune is the smallest of the ice giants. Despite being smaller than Uranus, Neptune has a greater mass. Below its heavy atmosphere, Uranus is made of layers of hydrogen, helium, and methane gases. They enclose a layer of water, ammonia and methane ice. The inner core of the planet is made of

Neptune’s atmosphere is made of eighty percent hydrogen, nineteen percent helium, and one and a half percent methane plus an unknown substance which along with the methane gives the planet its vibrant blue color. The planet's composition is made up of twenty five percent rock, sixty to seventy percent ice, five to fifteen percent hydrogen and helium. These compositions broke down father go to tell us that the planet has a mantle of water, ammonia, and methane gases, a core of iron and magnesium silicate, and a slush type ice made of ammonia, water, and methane ices. Neptune has 14 moons, the largest Triton and then Laomedeia, S/2004 N 1, Nereid, Halimede, Psamathe, Neso, Sao, Proteus, Larissa, Despina, Galatea, Naiad, and Thalassa. Scene Neptune's gravitational pull is so strong for a twenty year period out of 248 Earth years. the gravitational pull pulls in Dwarf planet Pluto. There has never been a crash in the two planets because every three laps that Neptune makes pluto makes only two. In order to get out of Neptune's atmosphere you would be going 52,702 mph (84,816 km/h). Neptune is a extremely cold planet (the coldest to be exact) at negative 353 degrees fahrenheit (negative 214 degrees celsius). Along with the cold temperatures Neptune also has Strong supersonic winds that are

This “Ice Giant” sure stands for its name as the 7th farthest planet from the Sun and its cold atmosphere brought about by the gases found here, hydrogen, helium and a little bit of methane. Uranus falls under the gas giant category along with neighbors Neptune and Saturn. This planet is composed of rock materials and various ices and is very similar to the cores of Saturn and Jupiter. Since the thick, blue-colored atmosphere covers the planet itself, scientists suggest that under the atmosphere is a hot, slushy ocean of water, ammonia, and methane thousands of mile deep right to a small, rocky core. Its blue color comes from the absorption of red light from the Sun by methane in the upper atmosphere but reflects blue light from the Sun back into space.

It is 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen with trace concentrations of water vapor, carbon dioxide, and other gaseous molecules. Jupiter’s atmosphere is composed primarily of hydrogen and helium, with trace amounts of other elements.

“We saw Saturn today whose name comes from the Roman god of agriculture. Tomorrow, we will see the last two planets in our Solar System. First, will be Uranus or the Greek god of the sky and later, Neptune or the Roman god of the sea. These ice giants of frozen water, ammonia, and methane have much fainter rings than Saturn’s dramatic ones. From their far-flung locations at the edge of the Solar System, it takes eighty-four Earth years for Uranus to orbit once around the Sun in comparison with a hundred and sixty-five Earth years for Neptune. Additionally, Neptune is the only planet in the Solar System not visible from Earth without a telescope. Both planets have frozen landscapes, with an average temperature of minus two hundred and twenty-four degrees Celsius for Uranus and minus four hundred degrees Celsius for Neptune. The two planets appear blue due to the reflection of blue light by methane, a primary component in their atmosphere. Furthermore, the twenty-seven moons of Uranus have names from characters of William Shakespeare’s plays such as Juliet, Ophelia, and Puck. In contrast, Neptune’s thirteen moons have names from the Greek sea gods and mythical beings such as Triton and Larissa.”

Triton is the largest satellite that orbits the planet Neptune. The surface of Triton is riddled with cryovolcanoes that emit volatiles such as water, ammonia, or methane, instead of the molten rock that volcanoes on Earth emit. It has an atmospheric pressure of 14 μbar (1/70,000th of Earth’s surface pressure) and a gravitational constant of -0.779 m/s2. The average surface wind speeds are 5-15m/s, and the average temperature is 35 K.

Many questions posed by scientists about Saturn’s atmosphere had gone unanswered for many years, because, like with Jupiter, photos from Earth had not been of high enough quality. The Voyager probes were able to fix that. Information relayed back to Earth from the two probes (which reached Saturn nine months apart, Voyager 1 first in 1980, Voyager 2 in 1981) helped scientists get a much better understanding. Though the atmosphere was expected to be quite similar in composition to the Sun and to Jupiter, Saturn’s atmosphere was actually quite different. There was significantly less Helium in Saturn’s outmost atmosphere, leading to many interesting conclusions, including that heavier Helium was sinking lower in the atmosphere (Voyager- Saturn, NASA). Saturn was also determined to have a lighter density than any other planet and is, in fact, less dense than water. The varying composition of the atmosphere also leant ideas to why Saturn was far warmer than expected, calculating temperature based solely on solar energy, registering between 10 degrees Kelvin at the poles and 143 Kelvin closer to the equator, according to Voyager 1’s radio measurements (these also measured pressure) (Voyager- Saturn, NASA). One of the other things determined by the Voyager probes was the extreme speed of the wind on Saturn. Wind blows at speeds of about 500 meters per second near the equator (Voyager- Saturn,

The average temp is -353 degrees Fahrenheit. (space.com) Does Neptune have an atmosphere? If so what is it mostly composed of? Neptune atmosphere by volume is Molecular hydrogen 80%, Helium 19%, Methane 1.5 %, hydrogen deuteride 192 parts per million 7 ethane 1.5 part per million. (space.com) How many moons does Neptune have and facts about them? Neptune has 14 moons the biggest being Triton which slightly smaller than Earths moon. Triton orbits Neptune backward it is the largest moon to do so. On July 15 the 14th moon was discovered and is temperately called S/2004 N 1. Triton is one of the four moons in the solar system to have an atmosphere. Neptune has seven inner moons Naiad, Despina, Galatea, Larissa, S/2004 N 1 and Proteus. (Space.com) Some interesting facts bout Neptune? Third largest planet dealing with mass. It is also the fourth largest planet dealing with diameter. Has the second largest gravity of any planet. Spins quickly on its axis. Neptune has the strongest winds in the solar system. Its surface gravity is almost like Earths. It’s also the coldest planet in the solar system. It’s a gas like planet. Neptune has five many rings that are Haller, Le Verrier, Lassell, Arago, and

Even today, scientists understand very little about the formation of Uranus and Neptune. This made scientists have stated that, "...the possibilities concerning the formation of Uranus and Neptune are almost endless." However, it has been suggested that this planetary system evolved in a very non-conventional manner, as described in the following lines. Planetesimals at the disk's inner edge occasionally passed through gravitational encounters with the outermost giant planet, which calter the planetesimals' orbits. The planets scattered inwards the most of the small icy bodies that they encountered, exchanging angular momentum with the scattered objects so that the planets move outwards in response, preserving the angular momentum of the system.

Neptune, is one of the four “Gas Giants”. Like Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus, it is composed only of gas. Neptune is a great ball of hydrogen and helium. Neptune moves in an orbit round the sun at the centre of the system. Uranus has a total of 27 moons, most of whom are named after characters in Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's dream. The five major moons are called Titania, Oberon, Miranda, Ariel and Umbriel. Umbriel is not from shakespeare but is the “Melancholy Sprite” in poem by Alexander pope.

Neptune is consed the ice giant because on its surface can reach -235 degrees Celsius or -391 degrees Fahrenheit even though the temperatures reach almost 400 degrees fahrenheit there have been gyses found the “spewing ice materials out from the ground”.

there wouldn’t be any possibly for anything on that planet. The atmosphere of Neptune is mostly the same as the other planets in the Solar System; it mostly consists of hydrogen and helium, with a little amount of methane, water, ammonia and other ices. But unlike the other gas planets in the Solar System, Neptune's atmosphere has a larger proportion of wind and ice. Neptune is known for the bright blue colors and its rings also for the sea god named Poseidon, Neptune is one of the largest gravidity other than Jupiter in the solar system. Another similarity is that Jupiter and Neptune almost have the same red dot on the planet. Both Neptune and Jupiter are in the Outer or Gaseous Planets section of our Solar System-instead of being made of solid rock and liquid like Earth and many of the Inner Planets are, they're made of gas-so there is no solid base for something like a space ship to land on or a person to walk on, you would just fall through the gas and eventually be crushed under the pressure. Both planets have rings-like all the Gaseous Planets, but nothing like the rings of Saturn-they are only small and you can only really see them

Seasons on Uranus are intense. This is due to the planet’s extreme tilt of ninety-seven degrees. This means the poles get direct sunlight for years at a time during the planets orbit. The other half of the period, when the Sun is directly above the equator, the planet experiences sunrises and sunsets with the rotation of the planet. This time would make the day about seventeen hours, or one full rotation of the planet. Another cause for the seasons on Uranus to be strange is that it takes eighty-four Earth years to complete an orbit. This means that each pole receives about twenty-one years of direct sunlight each orbital period. The seasons on Uranus differ from the other planets in our solar system because of its tilt and orbital period.

Uranus’ atmosphere is mostly helium and hydrogen. Uranus doesn't have a firm surface. Its atmosphere is broken into layers based on pressure and temperature. The first layer of the atmosphere is the troposphere, which is the most dense and extends 30 miles from the surface. The next layer of Uranus’ atmosphere is the stratosphere, which contains ethane smog that makes the planet look dull. Uranus’ atmosphere is the coldest in the solar system. Uranus is mainly made of ices, water, methane, and ammonia. Most planets have rocky molten cores, but Uranus has an icy center. The core is 9,000°F. Uranus has a set of rocky rings around its equator that is made of rocks and ice. It is known that there are 13 rings in two systems.

There are two groups that the planets can be categorized into, which are the Terrestrial Planet and the Jovian planets. There are 8 major plants revolving around the Sun. The names of the planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. The planets revolve counterclockwise around the sun except for Venus and Uranus. The First four plants closest to the Sun are Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars (Terrestrial planets). The last four planets farthest from the Sun are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune (Jovian Planets). The terrestrial planets have rocky or solid surfaces. Their masses are smaller. The rotate slower, have fewer moons, higher densities, and do not have rings. The Jovian planets are gaseous. They have larger
