Neptune Fact File

Neptune is the most distant planet from the Sun in our Solar System. It is a gas giant like Jupiter and Saturn, with no solid surface. Neptune has the strongest winds in the Solar System, blowing up to 10 times faster than the fastest cars on Earth. One of Neptune's storms is called "The Scooter" because of its incredible speed. Neptune has 14 moons, with Triton being the largest, and features ice volcanoes that erupt frozen water and gases. A single year on Neptune lasts 165 Earth years.
