Neptune
Neptune has a thick atmosphere composed mainly of hydrogen, helium, and methane. This atmosphere gives Neptune its blue color. The methane in the atmosphere absorbs red light, making the planet appear blue. The atmosphere also contains clouds, primarily made of methane ice crystals.
Neptune's atmosphere is made up of hydrogen, helium and methane. The methane in Neptune's upper atmosphere absorbs the red light from the sun but reflects the blue light from the sun back into space. This is why Neptune appears blue.
Methane gas alone does not make planets appear blue. The color of a planet largely depends on its atmospheric composition and the scattering of light by particles in the atmosphere. For example, methane in combination with other gases like nitrogen and oxygen can contribute to the blue appearance of Neptune.
The clouds on Neptune are made of Methane, and appear to be Blue.
Uranus' atmosphere is made up of hydrogen, helium and methane. The methane in Uranus' upper atmosphere absorbs the red light from the sun but reflects the blue light from the sun back into space. This is why Uranus appear blue.

The planet after Uranus is Neptune so the order of the planets go...Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune& Pluto
There is more methane gas in the highest levels of Neptune's atmosphere than there is on Uranus, this makes Neptune appear blue. Most of the gas in Neptune's atmosphere is hydrogen and helium. The atmosphere is stormier than that of Uranus because the inside of the planet is warmer, which stirs up the gas. Neptune also has ice particles in the atmosphere and ammonia deposits from the exposed molten ammonia core.

The tilt of earths axis makes the equator appear to be sideways.
Methane and Nitrogen. Eris is now the farthest it could be from the sun, hence its atmosphere is frozen onto the surface. As it get closer to the sun in the future, its atmosphere will appear and gaseous state becomes dominant.
Its mainly hydrogen (80%) and helium (19%). There is also around 1% methane in the atmosphere, which absorbs the red light and gives it its blue colour and there are some traces of Hydrogen deuteride and Ethane. There are also various ices present, such as ammonia, water and ammonium hydrosulfide.
Neptune doesn't have a surface because it is a gas giant. It is composed of hydrogen, helium and methane gases with a core of molten rock and molten ammonia. Neptune is very stormy. In fact, it has the fastest wind speeds discovered so far. Occasionally you can see black spots appear and disappear in Neptune's atmosphere. These are anticyclone storms.
Oh, that's a lovely question you have there. You see, the fraction of methane in Neptune's atmosphere is actually a bit higher than in Uranus' atmosphere. But you know, both planets have unique beauty in their own way, don't they? It's like painting two different skies with different shades of blue - each with its own charm and magic.
