Neptune: The Ice Giant
Neptune is the eighth and farthest planet from the Sun in the Solar System, and the second-largest of all the planets by diameter, even larger than Uranus. It is also the first planet in our Solar System to have a truly hydrogen-helium atmosphere, which creates a strong greenhouse effect, making it the coolest of all the planets. The average temperature in the upper atmosphere of -353°F (-203°C) makes it the perfect destination for the most adventurous of travelers.

Jupiter: The Gas Giant
Jupiter is the largest of all the planets, with a diameter of 142,000 km (89,000 miles). It is a gas giant, composed mainly of hydrogen and helium, with a massive magnetic field that traps charged particles, making it the planet with the strongest magnetic field in the Solar System. The Great Red Spot, a persistent anticyclonic storm, is a wonder to behold.

Weather on Neptune
Neptune's weather is quite unique, with strong winds and massive storms that can reach 2,100 km/h (1,300 mph), making it the windiest place in the Solar System. The pressure is so high that it would crush most spacecraft that try to visit.

Weather on Jupiter
Jupiter's weather is quite tame compared to Neptune, but still has some amazing storms, like the Great Red Spot. However, the lack of a solid surface means that weather patterns on Jupiter are quite different from those on Earth.
