More the latter - Neptune does not have a solid surface. Neptune is an "oddball" planet - it generates more of it's own energy than it receives from the sun. Most interesting are it's winds, estimated on the surface at over 1,000 MPH because of it's vast temperature extremes of heating from the exterior (the Sun) and heating from the interior (Neptune itself).
For a start, Neptune is very, very far away, so the trip would take a very long time! Voyager 2, the only spacecraft that's ever been to Neptune, took 12 years to get there, but it took advantage of a special planetary alignment that could speed it up. Nowadays, if we made the same journey, it would take over 30 years to get there from Earth. Assuming you didn't spend too many years at Neptune, you'd spend most of your life - 60 years - getting there and back! Of course, this might not be a problem in future, with better spacecraft technology.
No matter how fast we can get there though, Neptune will always be a pretty bleak place for humans to visit. There's no solid surface, so we couldn't land there - just a thick atmosphere covered in clouds. The atmosphere isn't breathable, made up of hydrogen, helium and methane. It would be very, very cold - around -218 Celsius! And the winds on Neptune are intense - nearly 1000 kilometres per hour in some places! Neptune is the stormiest planet in the Solar System.
So you'd have to set off very fast, using rocket technology we don't yet have, if you wanted to get there and back in a sensible time frame, and you'd need a very thick, warm spacesuit with plenty of oxygen to breathe that could float in Neptune's clouds and withstand the intense winds... not the easiest of space missions!
Perhaps someday though astronauts will eventually overcome these challenges and go to Neptune, and it will be worth it. Very little is currently known about Neptune, as only one probe has ever flown past, so a manned mission would teach us a lot of valuable scientific information. And it would be a breathtaking sight - Neptune looks a lot like Earth, with its deep blue skies and swirling white clouds, and has a beautiful system of rings and moons. Perhaps the best sight though would be looking back at the Sun. Neptune is so far away that the Sun is just a dot in the sky - a very bright star. No wonder it's so cold! And Earth would be so close to the Sun that it would be totally lost in the Sun's glare.
Because it probably doesn't have a "surface" as we think of it. Neptune is a gas giant planet, mostly made of liquified or slushy gasses. We're not even sure if it has a solid core.
First of all, there is no surface to stand on. Second, it is extremely cold. Third, this is no oxygen, Fourth, winds typically reach several hundred miles per hour.
Neptune has no food water or O2
there is no air.
why would it be difficult for a peron to survive on mercury andneptune
A person on Neptune would not be able to run let alone survive. The immense gravity would quickly crush them.

There are a number of factors that would make it difficult for people to live on Neptune.1. The planet is a very cold gas giant. It may have a solid core, but there's no conclusive evidence of this.2. The winds on Neptune are among the fastest known, peaking at 200 km/hr.3. The atmosphere is predominantly hydrogen and helium, with some ammonia and methane. Aside from the cold, the winds, and the pressure, the atmosphere is poisonous.4. The commute would be a bear.However, a properly armored pressure vessel might be able to land and survive on Neptune. It will be a very long time before we are ready to take that step.

No 1 can survive on neptune
A person on Neptune would not be able to run let alone survive. The immense gravity would quickly crush them.
You'd be about 2,145 years on Neptune (if you could survive there)
U would die why dont u go and go to neptune and find out your selfs!gosh
First of all, by the time you got to Neptune you would be dead. Second, there is no food, water, or oxygen!
If you got to Neptune and survived you would find aliens. The aliens would make you their slave and make you tell them the Earths military secrets. then they would come destroy the earth.
No.
It would be difficult to survive. If there will be no weather,it will be difficult to sustain in same conditions.
