No, Neptune is not quite as cold as the dwarf planet Pluto. Pluto's temperatures vary from a low of about 33 K to a high of about 55 K. Neptune's temperatures in its upper atmosphere reaches a low of about 51.7 K (−221.4 °C). That's not a lot of difference, but it's pretty clear that Neptune is edged out for the most frigid of the "original planets" in the solar system.

Is Pluto colder than neptune?

Yes, Pluto is colder than Neptune. Despite being farther from the Sun, Pluto's thin atmosphere and small size make it much colder than Neptune's atmosphere, which traps heat and keeps the planet warmer.


Is Neptune bigger than Pluto?

Yes, Neptune is larger than Pluto. Neptune is the fourth-largest planet in our solar system by diameter, while Pluto is classified as a dwarf planet and is much smaller in size compared to the eight recognized planets.


Which planet is before Pluto?

the planet farther than Pluto is Eris the planet farther than Pluto is Eris the planet farther than Pluto is Eris the planet farther than Pluto is Eris the planet further than neptune is nothing in our solar system but out of our solar system it,s Eris


What is the planet with an orbit that intersects the orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto?

The planet with an orbit that intersects the orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto is Neptune. Neptune, the eighth and farthest known planet from the Sun in the Solar System, has an orbit that crosses Pluto's orbit due to its elliptical path around the Sun. This orbital relationship between Neptune and Pluto is one of the factors that led to Pluto's reclassification as a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union.


What is the planet farther away from the sun?

its unusual but it is planet X. you may think im wrong but me is 98% sure *** All of them. Since Pluto follows an irregular orbit an a different axis than the other planets, it's relative distance to the obits of other planets is always in flux. If you meant to ask which planet is sometimes farther from the Sun than Pluto, the answer is Neptune.

Is Pluto the coldest planet even though its a dwarf planet?

Although Pluto is colder than Neptune (our coldest planet), Eris is both larger and colder than Pluto. Eris is quite a bit further from our sun than Pluto, whereas Pluto is sometimes closer than Neptune. Even when Pluto is closer to the sun, it still doesn't get warmer than Neptune, as Neptune possesses a small amount of internally generated heat.

Is the dwarf planet Pluto colder than Neptune?

Yes! dwaf planet Pluto is the coldist planet than planet Neptune because dwaf planet Pluto is far away from the sun and planet Nepune is closer to the Sun. So i think dwaf planet Pluto is the coldist.

What is the closet planet to Pluto?

The closest planet to Pluto is Neptune, the closest object would be Chiron which is Pluto's "moon", although it is little more than a captured asteroid.


The closest planet to pluto?

neptuneNeptune is the closest to Pluto. Uranus is the second closest planet to Pluto. Saturn is the third closest planet to Pluto. Jupiter is the forth closest planet to Pluto. Mars is the fifth closest planet to Pluto. Earth is the sixth closest planet to Pluto. Venus is the seventh closest planet to Pluto. Mercury is the most furthest away from Pluto. The Sun and the moon are not considered as planets. The planet Pluto is also not considered as a planet.


When Pluto was considered a planet why was neptune the farthest planet from the sun from 1979 to 1999?

Neptune's orbit is more elliptical than Pluto's, causing their orbits to sometimes intersect. From 1979 to 1999, Neptune's elliptical orbit brought it closer to the sun than Pluto, making Neptune the farthest planet from the sun during that time.

Which planet in your solar system is the second coldest?

Now that Pluto is not considered a planet,Neptune is the coldest followed by uranus. But many scientist believe Uranus is colder than neptune because the coldest temprature recorded in uranus is colder than neptune's


What is the coldest Planet other than Pluto?

Neptune
