Neptune's thick atmosphere consist of 74% hydrogen, 25% helium and about 1% methane. The atmosphere merges into the planet's mantle.
Neptune's atmosphere has icy clouds and enormous storms. These features change rapidly because of tremendous winds that whip around the planet. Neptune has the fastest winds in our Solar System.
Icy particles of methane in the outer parts of its atmosphere give Neptune its deep blue color; methane absorbs red light.
Neptune's Great Dark Spot is an Earth-sized hurricane in the thick methane atmosphere of Neptune. The size, shape, and location of the spot vary greatly over time; it even disappears and reappears occasionally. The storm spins counterclockwise.
Horrendous winds near the spot were measured by Voyager 2 to be about 1,500 miles per hour (2,400 kph). These are the strongest recorded winds in our solar system.
What else can I help you with?
What is The Atomsphere Composition Of EArth?
The Earth's atmosphere is primarily composed of nitrogen (78%), oxygen (21%), and traces of other gases such as carbon dioxide, argon, and water vapor. These gases help regulate the Earth's temperature, maintain proper air quality, and support life forms on the planet.
What are the gas that surround a star or a planet?
The gasses surrounding a planet is called an atmosphere and what gasses surround a planet depends on the planet. Earth's atmosphere is a combination of oxygen, nitrogen, argon and carbon dioxide and Saturn's atmosphere is comprised of hydrogen and helium.
What are the Observable Behavior of Gases?
Observable behaviors of gases include expansion to fill container, diffusion to mix evenly with other gases, compression under pressure, and exertion of pressure on container walls.
Can the gas be stirred?
No, gases do not have a fixed shape or volume like liquids and solids, so they cannot be stirred. Gases will naturally mix and spread out to fill the space available to them.
What is the shape of gasses?
gases takes the shape and volume of the container
Is it safe to sleep in a car in a garage with the car off?
Yes, because when a car is off, no noxious gases are released. However, if the car is on in a closed space, the space will eventually fill up with poison gases and it will not be safe.

What does gases do to fill extra space?
Expand.
Can gases stretch out to fill a vacuum?
Yes. A gas will expand to fill a space evenly.
What will matter in a gaseous state do to fill its container?
Gases will expand to fill their containers.
What are the gases used to fill a balloon?
When you fill by blowing into it, it up it's nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, a bit of water vapor and trace amounts of other gases. . But to make it float you fill it with helium.
What do gases do to fill every space available to them?
expand
Why do gases tend to fill out any available space?
Intermolecular bonds in gases are extremely weak; because of this gases can easily expand.
What does gases do to fill what ever space is available to them?
The intermolecular forces in gases are extremely small; gases easily diffuse in any space.
Can we fill the ozone layer with other gases?
That is why the ozone layer is having problems. We need to STOP adding things to the atmosphere that Nature does not immediately accept as "coin".See "Can the hole in the Ozone layer be fixed?"
Why do gases spread to fill a space?
In the same way that water poured into a tin will fill the space until the water overflows. So too will gases pouring into a confined space.
