I used to think Neptune was an ice ball and you could stand on it’s surface in a space suit. Imagine the flatness, the horizon would be much further away. Now I know there is no actual surface, the wind speed is huge.
I mainly wondered if you could stand on a sphere much larger than Earth, how far away you can see, the horizon would be flat. In any case the gravity would be much stronger. The Majipoor Chronicles featured Majipoor, a very large planet with breathable air but metal poor so it was roughly Earth’s mass so the gravity was the same. But Majipoor was mostly ocean with some small continents.
@@darylcheshire1618 While Neptune is 17x more massive than Earth, its also 3.8 times larger in diameter, so if you could stand on Neptune, you'd be farther from its center of mass. This means that the "surface" gravity on Neptune is only about 15% higher than Earth's.
It’s amazing to think that Neptune is a ‘strange’ planet when earth could be 1 in a trillion or more. The universe is mind blowing. Life and everything we find normal on earth isn’t normal in outer space(not that we know of).
Strange based on our limited view of what constitutes a normal planet. I'm sure microbes on a passing asteroid would be like, "that Earth is one straaaaange place". It's all about the observer, not the observed.

eh well only if the wind turbine isn't moving with the wind itself, which is hard when there isn't ground so it would have to be a dirigible, so if you're being pushed by the winds you would be moving as fast as the wind and so from your perspective there wouldn't be wind, or at least nearly as much.

@PoorMans Chemist coming from parallel universe Neptune is astonishing and mysterious. Not only that sometimes there are sparks as if there is friction in the atmosphere.
Btw: The winds just reach the level of earths supersonic velocity, but are not supersonic on Neptune (which wouldn't make sense if you think about it). The winds on Neptune reach a peak velocity of 2.100 kmh/h. Earths supersonic velocity is 1.234,8 km/h while Neptunes supersonic velocity is about 8.928 km/h. So, yes: it reaches earth supersonic velocity, but not Neptunes. If someone wants their units in bananas: 3.141. :D
@Daniel R.: wind can of course go faster than the speed of sound in that particular medium. How should a super-sonic wind tunnel work otherwise? Speed of sound is only relative to the medium, and if the medium moves, the speed of sounds changes with it accordingly (which means, during super fast storms, there is a noticably difference between sound events from different directions)
Yes not a fan of how they used ‘supersonic’ so loosely. They could easily have said ‘wind speeds that would be supersonic if they occurred here in our atmosphere on earth’. It’s misleading for the sake of sounding cool
@@PoisonNuke Well it doesn't even have to be quite like that. "Wind" is just bulk movement of air, and if you are floating along with that air then you won't even notice how fast it is moving. Even if it is moving faster than the speed of sound in the medium, relative to the ground. There'll be some hectic interactions at boundary layers with other air masses (if their relative speed is high), but in the bulk nothing special need happen.

Aerospace Engineer here. Speed of sound in outer planet atmospheres by Ralph D Lorenz shows the lower limit of the speed of sound on Neptune is around 600 m/s, however it can get up to 1200 m/s at relatively high pressures. At the top of the atmosphere where wind speeds are high and pressure is low->1,500 mph (670 m/s) winds would result in a speed 11% higher than the local speed of sound. That atmosphere is moving…
If all of this is really there then you scientist are phenomenal...One thought everytime comes in my mind after watching these kind of videos is how did you guys control a space craft at certain heights......
Orbital mechanics: with all the theories put into work you can program a spacecraft to go to certains orbits to have the data. Now of course it didn't went into Neptune's atmosphere but by simply looking at the surface change you can see the evolution of winds just like for Earth's weather.
I'm so disappointed that these giant planets are gas giants instead of rock planet like ours. When I was a kid, I had hoped to migrate to my favorite planet Saturn. Life is so unfair.
Big storm clouds are already unnerving with their scale and power. I cant even comprehend seeing a planet-sized storm. The sheer scale of the cloud walls would just be terror inducing with their speed and power
It doesn't....? The doppler effect is when something moves towards you, sound is compressed and when it moves away sound is stretched, so if you're moving along with the wind there isn't a Dopler effect, but otherwise if you're slower, well the sound of the wind moving towards you is compressed and becomes streched after it passes by.
@@geckoo7770 Thank you. I didn't phrase my question well. If the clouds move near supersonic speeds, how would that affect the sound of something relative to a stationary or slower observer?
@@Paethgoat Oh you mean if you're trying to hear something stable trough a storm like that? well I guess it would be very hard just like trying to listen to something in a storm, apparently I saw in a lot of comment that supersonic speed on neptune is higher than the speed of it's clouds but it would still be very hard to properly hear something with the noise those clouds would make

I don't know.....mine is pretty hot 🔥
Aerospace Engineer here.
Speed of sound in outer planet atmospheres by Ralph D Lorenz shows the lower limit of the speed of sound on Neptune is around 600 m/s, however it can get up to 1200 m/s at relatively high pressures.
At the top of the atmosphere where wind speeds are high and pressure is low->1,500 mph (670 m/s) winds would result in a speed 11% higher than the local speed of sound. That atmosphere is moving…
The narration on these RUclips clips from the show is better than the actual BBC show.
Wonderful storytelling!
Quality content with great choice of words
Raining diamonds is crazy
0:19 YES
Wish I had access to the music composition playing in the background. Majestic sounds.
If all of this is really there then you scientist are phenomenal...One thought everytime comes in my mind after watching these kind of videos is how did you guys control a space craft at certain heights......
Orbital mechanics: with all the theories put into work you can program a spacecraft to go to certains orbits to have the data. Now of course it didn't went into Neptune's atmosphere but by simply looking at the surface change you can see the evolution of winds just like for Earth's weather.
I thought Neptune would be warmer than Uranus because half of Uranus is always in a constant state of night.
Half of every planet isn't exposed by Sun light...
@@geckoo7770 Yeh that’s true but I would assume that Uranus’s North Pole would be extra cold considering it never sees the sun
@@honeymoon1263 Yeah but it must be like Venus's dense atmosphere where it's almost constantly the same temperature everywhere.
I'm so disappointed that these giant planets are gas giants instead of rock planet like ours. When I was a kid, I had hoped to migrate to my favorite planet Saturn. Life is so unfair.
you can still migrate to their moons, Europa or Titan for example, they have rigid surfaces
The wind speed in saturn is 1000 mph.
Bouyant colonies are a possibility. You need a way to deal with the deadly em emissions and winds though
Year 22, Dec 17, 2021: Some day... I'll watch a space video and not laugh when they casually say Uranus
Neptune bound baby!
1500 MPH!!! Great place to fly kites.
You mean to fly with the kites?
No, I meant Kites. Not the bird, the rhombus thing that Chinese and Indians fly with a string.
Give props to the camera man, he recorded all of this for us 👍🏻
shout out to the camera man, who risk their life filming inside of neptune
Nobody went there to film that dummy lol. Only spacecraft of tepescope
@@Moodboard39 r/wooosh
@@Moodboard39 its a joke
@@severikarjalainen Joke ? See no laughing .Can't tell is a joke , cuz some people could be dumb
@@Moodboard39 yeah you are right. Its just a meme thou
Had beans for dinner last night so I've been making my own super sonic winds today.
Big storm clouds are already unnerving with their scale and power. I cant even comprehend seeing a planet-sized storm. The sheer scale of the cloud walls would just be terror inducing with their speed and power
Real question: How do those wind speeds affect doppler of sound?
I failed fisics
@@pierreproudhon9008 and also orthography? ;-)
It doesn't....? The doppler effect is when something moves towards you, sound is compressed and when it moves away sound is stretched, so if you're moving along with the wind there isn't a Dopler effect, but otherwise if you're slower, well the sound of the wind moving towards you is compressed and becomes streched after it passes by.
@@geckoo7770 Thank you. I didn't phrase my question well. If the clouds move near supersonic speeds, how would that affect the sound of something relative to a stationary or slower observer?
@@Paethgoat Oh you mean if you're trying to hear something stable trough a storm like that? well I guess it would be very hard just like trying to listen to something in a storm, apparently I saw in a lot of comment that supersonic speed on neptune is higher than the speed of it's clouds but it would still be very hard to properly hear something with the noise those clouds would make
Absolutely stunning planet to look at expected for a gas giant beauty. Will always be my favorite planet ✨🔵✨
Does a sonic boom depends on the density of the atmosphere?
Sure.
0:11 WRONG! It’s not a ice giant. It hold life to a group of Neptunians who colonized that planet
They are called Neomunans, they are protected by cloud striders. One is fruity and the bad ass one well died heroically
I was looking for one of these
No matter how much i mature, this shit will always make me gag 0:19 😂
And it was so uncalled for too
Wow, the only thing that can actually tamper with the structure and strength of diamonds (damaging and breaking them).
And flat earthers say all that is just one big lie . I mean how can even a scientist made up a huge lie like this . Its impossible . The space exists and the planets and galaxies are real...
Even people from ancient times knew the earth was round as well as the existence of planets which is sad
Seeing round objects in space and thinking earth is the only thing that's flat 🤦🏿♂️
Who’s here from Destiny 2 lightfall
I was waiting for a comment like this.
@@brodybarlowe965 lmao same here I saw my chance 🙈
mee
this is why being Superman would be awesome to be able to visit these places.
Imagine harvesting those winds for power,that would be insane
:33 How is Neptune’s composition 100.5%?
Wow, it really is a crazy place!
Uh life, uh finds a way
This planet continues to defy logic, I guess 🤷🏻♂️😂🤔
Airbnb for frost giants…
