Why is Pluto the coldest planet in your solar system?

What is the most distant planet in the solar system?
The most distant planet in our solar system is Neptune. It is the eighth and farthest known planet from the Sun, with an average distance of about 4.5 billion kilometers (2.8 billion miles) from the Sun. Neptune is a gas giant, similar in composition to Uranus, and it has a blue color due to the presence of methane in its atmosphere.
