What would you bring to Neptune if you went to Neptune?

Answer 1

If I went to Neptune, I'd have to bring a supply of food and oxygen, of course, as Neptune has none of that. But I'd have to wrap up extremely warmly and wear a very thick and insulated space suit, because Neptune is extremely cold - the upper atmosphere is -225 degrees Celsius!

I'd also have to bring a plane, or some other way of flying around in Neptune's atmosphere, because Neptune doesn't have a solid surface - instead, it just has an extremely thick atmosphere, which gets thicker and denser as you descend deeper into the planet and eventually becomes a liquid. If Neptune does have a solid core, it's right at the centre of the planet, under intense pressure and extremely hot - and totally inaccessible! So I could never land on Neptune - I'd have to bring something to fly in the atmosphere. Or maybe I'd have to make do with landing on one of Neptune's 13 moons. I'd have to make sure my plane was tough, because otherwise the hurricane-force winds that constantly blow in Neptune's atmosphere - faster than the speed of sound! - would tear it apart!

Finally, I'd have to bring a lot of entertainment for the journey there, as Neptune isn't somewhere we could go in a hurry! Neptune is so far away that even light, the fastest thing in the Universe - takes about four hours to get there from Earth. By spacecraft? It took the Voyager II spacecraft twelve years to get to Neptune, and that was because it got little speed boosts from an alignment of the planets. That alignment won't come back for centuries, so if you wanted to go to Neptune now by space probe you'd have to wait a good twenty years for the journey!

Answer 2

The planet Neptune and its moons are so far from the Sun that their outer temperatures are barely above absolute zero, and average in the range of -100 to -200°C. You could not walk on Neptune, which has a thick gaseous atmosphere and a superheated slush of water and ammonia covering its surface. You could explore its moons, where Earth gases exist as icy liquids and solids, and humans would freeze solid in seconds without heated protective suits.

Answer 3

You could inhabit it by building a bio-dome and an ice-retreiving robot. You could use a C02 Converter or a machine that converts helium and hydrogen to oxygen. Or you could hydroponically plant a flower to grow.

Answer 4

You could have fun playing Ice Hockey, or ice skating, you could sight see, and there is a benefit of age, since a year on Neptune is about 165 (164.79 years to be exact) years on earth.

Answer 5

Nothing, No one has ever been to neptune.

i just straight up wouldn’t go
