It is a gas giant. It is mostly gas but is believed to have rock and ice core about 9500 miles in diameter. So there is a surface under a dense atmosphere over 10,000 miles thick of mostly hydrogen and helium with a small amount of methane. The temperature at the surface is -200 degrees Celsius. The planet has the highest winds of any planet in the solar system, reaching up to 1,200 mph. The surface pressure is 980 times that of Earth's.

Neptune orbits the sun at about 5.43 km/s in a 164.79 year period to make one orbit around the sun. It has 13 satellites that orbit around it. Its primary atmosphere, the mantle of water, ammonia, iced methane (unlike Earth the mantle can be penetrated), finally the iced over rocky core. These conditions hind Neptune's true features, this is the same reason why scientise dub Neptune and Uranus almost feature less. Like all the gas giants, Neptune has a thin ring of dust and ice. Neptune has a Great Dark Spot that's comparable to Jupiter's Great Red Spot.

Neptune doesn't really have a surface to have characteristics. Its surface is its atmosphere, which is made up of hydrogen, helium, methane, and has storms scattered through out the planet. The Great Dark Spot is a storm that is moving ten times faster than a hurricane.

Neptune is a gaseous plant. As with other gaseous planets, Neptune does not have a definitive surface layer. Neptune is thought to have 13 moons.
