Neptune is always the farthest planet from the Sun.

But the dwarf planet Pluto will eventually grow in size as it continues to orbit and collect and grow from floating materials in space (e.g. smaller meteors landing and collecting on Pluto increase it's size). It isn't a planet now but could eventually grow to the size of a planet and regain its planetary status, making Neptune not the farthest from the sun.

What is the difference between mars and Neptune?

Unfortunately Mars is cold, but Neptune is extremely cold. Therefore Mars is so likely like Earth that scientists think there might be living things on Mars. Neptune is more likely impossible to live on therefore you will need quite a lot of the technology to live or even go to Neptune. Edit: Also Mars is a solid rocky world, whereas Neptune is mainly gas, fluids and so on.

What planets are further from the sun than Uranus?

The planets that are farther from the Sun than Earth are (in this order): * Mars * Jupiter * Saturn * Uranus * Neptune and sometimes Y, er, I mean the Dwarf Planet Pluto. (It's 'sometimes' because Pluto's orbit brings it closer to the Sun than Neptune part of the time [most recently for 20 years ending in 1999] which is one of the reasons why it was reclassified as a Dwarf Planet.)
