Currently no human made objects are orbiting Neptune yet Neptune has eight satellites explain?
Neptune actually has 13 satellites,
Naiad, Thalassa, Despina, Galatea, Larissa, Proteus, Triton, Nereid, Halimede, Sao, Laomedeia, Pasamathe, and Neso.
Also, you may note that your question is incomplete, so I'll try to give a "shot in the dark" at answering your question.
Though Neptune has 13 known satellites, it likely has more that are beyond the detection capabilities of modern telescopes. Out there at the edge of the Sol System, lighting isn't too good, so it's harder to find those small moons. With the exception of Triton, Neptune's moons are rather small. Triton orbits Neptune counter-clockwise, as opposed to the rest of the moons which orbit Neptune clockwise. This is because Triton is believed to have been captured earlier in the history of the Sol System.
It's believed Uranus had a large collision or two that resulted in enough debris being shot into orbit to generate several relatively large moons, and provided Uranus with a ring system. Neptune isn't believed to have any such event. So Neptune's satellites (with the exception of Triton, again) are generally smaller.
What is the temperature range of the planet Uranus?
The temperature range on Uranus is typically between -224 to -370 degrees Celsius (-371 to -694 degrees Fahrenheit) in its outer atmosphere. The colder temperatures are due to the planet's distance from the Sun and its lack of internal heat sources.
What is the force of gravity in Uranus?
The gravitational field near the "surface" is about 8.69 meters/second2 (= 8.69 newton/kilogram). For comparison, Earth's gravity field near its surface is about 9.82 meters/second2. Please note that the gas planets, including Uranus, don't really have a surface like Earth does.
What is the color of planet mercury?
The planet Mercury is gray-brown. It has a very thin atmosphere that does not contribute to its coloring, and therefore all that is seen is its surface.
How long does it take Neptune to rotate on its axis?
Neptune takes 16 hours, 6 minutes and 36 seconds to rotate once on its axis. That's about 2/3rds of an earth day.
Note that the period of rotation is measured by watching Neptune's magnetic field. The time cited is the time it takes the "whole planet" to rotate once on its axis. This is important because Neptune is not solid - it's a big gas planet, and the atmosphere is rotating at different speeds.
How many days does it take Neptune to go around the sun?
A year for Neptune is equal to 164.79 Earth years and a "day" is 16.1 Earth hours long. So a Neptune year is equal to 60,910 Earth days or 89,666 Neptune days. Interesting fact : there has not been one full Neptunian year since its discovery in September, 1846. In late June of 2011, we will mark one "year" since its discovery.
Who discovered Neptune together?
Neptune was discovered by German astronomer Johann Galle and French mathematician Urbain Le Verrier in 1846. Le Verrier had calculated the planet's existence based on discrepancies in the orbit of Uranus, and Galle confirmed its existence by observing it through a telescope.
Can bean seeds grow faster in a small pot with a lot of space or with less space?
Bean seeds may grow faster in a larger pot with more space as it allows for better root development and more access to nutrients and water. In a small pot with limited space, the roots may become crowded and inhibit growth.
What would you look like if you lived in Pluto?
You'd have to have REALLY thick skin and insulation, and we'd probally be blue from the cold and to blend in. our noses would be smaller to keep the cold out of our systems but we'd have larger lungs to brethe the air. our hair would be really long to keep us warm, and we wouldent be able to smell.
What are Neptune's rings made of?
In a comparison to Saturn, Neptune's rings are much darker while the ones circling Saturn's are very bright. Neptune's rings are probably made of rocks and dust as opposed to ice, like Saturn's. Rocks and dust would not reflect as much light, thus appearing dark instead of bright.
Has the 27th amendment ever been repealed?
No, but it should be.
Congressional cost of living adjustments (COLAs) have been upheld against legal challenges based on this amendment.
How fast does wind need to blow to move a rock?
The speed required to move a rock with wind depends on the rock's size, shape, and weight. Generally, wind speeds of at least 20-30 miles per hour are needed to significantly move small rocks, while larger rocks may require much stronger winds exceeding 40-50 miles per hour.
Why does gas warfare draw so much attention?
Gas warfare was a huge issue during World War I. Men had only seconds to put on their gas masks or they risked blindness and death. The gas would cause men to literally start coughing up their lungs.
In hydrology, bound water, is an extremely thin layer of water surrounding mineral surfaces. Water molecules have a strong electrical polarity, meaning that there is a very strong positive charge on one side of the molecule and a strong negative charge on the other.
How many basketballs can fit in a 747?
The exact number of basketballs that can fit in a 747 aircraft will vary depending on the size of the basketballs and how they are packed. However, as a rough estimate, a 747 aircraft has a cargo hold volume of about 6,000 cubic feet, so you could fit thousands of basketballs inside.
What is the temperature of Neptune's moon Triton?
well first you should know that Triton is a moon of Neptune. it is a moon that scientists are mostly interested in. Triton has the coldest known surface temperature in the solar system and its at -235 C or you could say -391 F!

Leaving the scene of an accident without providing contact information is considered a hit-and-run, which is a criminal offense. You could face legal consequences, including fines, license suspension, and potential criminal charges. It's important to always stop and exchange information if you damage another person's property in an accident, regardless of the extent of the damage.
Is Neptune dense enough to stand on?
Neptune doesn't really have a solid surface like Earth does. It's a large gas planet with an exposed molten core. There isn't a way to stand on it like standing on Earth, instead you'd sink into the planet and be incinerated by the molten core.
If you could, though, you'd find that Neptune's gravity is about 1.14 g or 1.14 times earth gravity. If a person who weighted 137 pounds on Earth weighed in on Neptune, the scale would tip at about 156.2 pounds.
What would you wear if you lived in the west in the 1800's?
In the 1800s in the western United States, people commonly wore practical clothing suited for ranching, mining, or other outdoor work. This typically included items like wide-brimmed hats, long-sleeved shirts, denim or canvas pants, leather boots, and a bandana for dust protection. Women often wore long dresses or skirts with high-neck blouses and bonnets to shield from the sun.
Yes, Neptune is extremely cold, with temperatures reaching as low as -370 degrees Fahrenheit (-224 degrees Celsius). This is due to its distance from the Sun, which is about 30 times farther away than Earth.
Planet on which life is found?
Earth is the only known planet where life has been found. It is unique due to its abundance of liquid water, suitable atmosphere, and moderate temperatures that can support a diverse range of life forms.
