In theory, yes.

Neptune is a gas giant composed of hydrogen, helium and methane.

Hydrogen and helium are extremely flammable, while methane is mildly flammable.

However, Neptune is also a very stormy (windy) and extremely freezing planet, so these characteristics would easily extinguish any flames.

If Neptune ignited and managed to stay ignited, it would become a second sun in our solar system, until it runs out of gas to burn. Which could be extremely disastrous for nearby planets and moons.

How long does it take Neptune travel around Earth?

2.5 months. Collusion is set for Earth on 7/21/12


How long would it take to get to Neptune from earth at 500 mph on march 1?

The answer depends on the relative motion of Neptune. The distance from the earth to Neptune when you set off will not be the same as the distance when you arrive. You would need to calculate the position of Neptune at the arrival time.This is like, if you are playing a ball game you do not go to where it is but to a point which you and the ball will get to at the same time.


What problems have been sent to Neptune?

the problem is that Neptune is a way to cold place to check anything out . it is -235 degrees and it is a water planet so no one would be able to research on the planet or even Set foot on it , also Neptune is a gas planet so you wouldn't be able to even breath there


Can you set grass on fire?

Yes, grass can be set on fire if exposed to a flame or sufficient heat source. Dry grass is more flammable than wet grass. It is important to exercise caution when setting grass on fire, as fires can quickly spread out of control.


If the radius of Mars is is about 13.7 of Neptune's radius what is the radius of Neptune?

If the radius of Mars is approximately 13.7 times that of Neptune's radius, we can denote Neptune's radius as ( R ). Thus, Mars's radius would be ( 13.7R ). Given that Mars's actual radius is about 3,389.5 kilometers, we can set up the equation ( 13.7R = 3,389.5 ) km. Solving for ( R ) gives Neptune's radius as approximately 247.5 kilometers, which seems incorrect, suggesting a misunderstanding of the values provided. In reality, Neptune's radius is about 24,622 kilometers.
