Neptune, the farthest gas giant from the Sun, is extremely cold with an average temperature of -200°C. It emits more internal heat than it receives from the Sun. The planet's atmosphere is dominated by storms, including the Great Dark Spot, driven by winds up to 700 mph. Neptune's largest moon, Triton, features active cryovolcanoes and orbits in a retrograde direction, hinting at its capture from the Kuiper Belt.
