There's Something Strange! Neptune’s Clouds Are Gone and It’s All Because of the Sun!
In this video, you will learn about a surprising discovery that has changed our understanding of Neptune’s weather and its connection to the Sun. You will find out how the clouds on Neptune, which are mostly made of methane gas, have almost disappeared since 2019, and how this phenomenon is linked to the solar cycle, which is the 11-year cycle of the Sun’s activity. You will also discover how astronomers using two powerful telescopes, the Keck Observatory and the Hubble Space Telescope, noticed this change and what it means for our knowledge of the solar system. You will also see some amazing images of Neptune and its clouds that will show you the beauty and diversity of nature. This video is based on a scientific paper published in the journal Icarus and two articles from Phys.org and The New York Times.
