What is the effect on Neptune being so close to the sun?
Since neptune is so far away from the sun it is super cold (-210 degrees celcius!)
How close can you get to planet Neptune?
neptune is the eighth planet from the sun . Comment: You can get as close as you like, but you would need a very good spacecraft and it would take years to get there.
Why does neptune have the slowest orbital velocity?
because it is one of the lightest planet and it is not that close to the sun
What is the name and year of the satellites or robots that have explored neptune?
To date, no satellites or robots have directly explored Neptune. However, the Voyager 2 spacecraft flew by Neptune in 1989, providing the first and only close-up images and data of the planet.
What is colder Neptune or mercury?
Neptune. Mercury is very close to the sun so it's hot. Neptune is much further out. The order frmo the sun outwards goes: (Sun) Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune Pluto Or it used to before they started messing with how many planets we have. The main answer holds true though.
How far does Neptune get to the sun?
I think the question means "how close" to the Sun. The nearest Neptune gets to the Sun is about 4,453 million kilometers. Its orbit is fairly close to being a circle, so the farthest it gets from the Sun isn't much different.

How much sunlight does Neptune need?
Not a lot, because it has ice caps and so Neptune is known for its ice. If it was close to the sun then no ice for Neptune. ~for you!

When did Neptune finish it first revolution?
Neptune would have finished its first reveloution around the sun close to 4.6 billion years ago.
What are the mission and discoveries on Neptune?
The space probe Voyager 2 passed close to Neptune in 1989 for purposes of observation. It also passed by its moons Nereid and Triton.

What number is Neptune from the sun?
Neptune is the 8th planet from the Sun.
What is the name of the satellites that have explored Neptune close up?
There have been none. The only direct study of Neptune was done during the flyby of Voyager II in August 1989. It passed within 5000 km of Neptune and relatively close to the moons Nereid and Triton.
How many kms is it to neptune from the sun?
It gets as close as 4,452,940,833 km and as far as 4,553,946,490 km.
