Falling into Neptune description -
As you fall towards Neptune you would have an incredible view of the planets immense storms raging below you. You would be descending at a similar speed too if you were falling towards Earth, as Neptune's Gravity is only 14% stronger than our own planets. Because you are so far away from the sun, very little light reaches this distant part of the solar system, resembling a dim twilight back on Earth. You would first fall through high white, cirrus clouds made of methane ice crystals, at about 0.5 atmospheres, which is half the atmospheric pressure at sea level on Earth. At this altitude it is incredibly cold, dropping to below -200 degrees Celsius (-350degrees Fahrenheit). Around 30 miles down you would enter into the ammonia and hydrogen sulphide cloud decks at about 5 atmospheres. Hear the clouds move faster than the speed of sound on Earth, as Neptune experiences the fastest wind in the solar system, reaching speeds of up to 1500 miles per hour. But because of your super science fiction space suit, you are kept steady and continue on your descent. Because of Neptune's thick clouds and distance from the sun, no light can penetrate this deep and you would find yourself in a pitch black, cold, lonely environment, with violent winds whipping past your helmet. After falling for a long time you would be 100 miles into Neptune, when huge flashes of lightning illuminate your dark surroundings, revealing towering white water ice clouds that are causing rumbling thunderstorms to occur. As you pass through this cloud stage the pressure would increase to well above 50 atmospheres and the temperature would be around 26 degrees Celsius. Using your hi-tech science fiction helmet you can now see what's around you, but you would quickly realise that the cloud layers were the easy part of the adventure. As you emerge from the bottom of the water ice clouds the pressure would become intense and the temperature would drastically increase to above 1000 degrees Celsius. After a very long time of sinking, you would be around 4000 miles into Neptune and within the planets mysterious mantle layer. Hear your suit would have to withstand pressures greater than 10,000 atmospheres and increasing temperatures higher than 4000 degrees Celsius. This strange superheated layer is composed of water, methane and ammonia ices that behave as a hot dense fluid under immense pressures. Because of these extreme pressures carbon atoms might also crystallise and form diamonds. As you descend ever closer towards Neptune's core, these diamonds would rain down around you like glittering hailstone, as they slowly sink through the liquid mantle. After a long time of sinking through this thick region, with the pressures and temperatures continuing to drastically increase, your adventure would come to an end. Thousands of miles into the planet you would be standing on Neptune's core, a surface roughly the same mass as Earth and made of rock, iron and exotic ices, possibly with a layer of nestled diamonds. In this region you would be stranded, unable to travel further and unable to escape. You would be doomed to spend the rest of your life in a scorching environment with your science fiction suit having to withstand the temperature of above 5000 degrees Celsius and pressures of above 7 million atmospheres.

I love these "What if you fell into" videos. I love to listen to you describe what goes on at various depths and imagining what that would actually be like. For example, the liquid hydrogen metal inside of Jupiter. Weird!

And yet my parents’ stories how they got to school back in the day seem to be worse than this

Trying to imagine what clouds whipping by at 1, 500 mph is mind boggling. I feel like those kinds of speeds on Earth would literally rip the ground itself apart.

I like how we assume our super scientific fantasy space suit is so incredibly high tech we're able to fall through Neptune's atmosphere to its core and stand on it without flinching, but we can't fly back out of it.

Somewhere some geeky alien who breaths hydrogen watching video titled: What would you see if you accidentally fell on Earth.

Neptune: I see you have chosen death.
Me: No, I've chosen diamonds.

Narrator: "You would be doomed to spend the rest of your life . . . having to withstand temperatures of above 5000 degrees Celsius and pressures of above 7 million atmospheres."
Me (living through 2020): "I'll take my chances on Neptune! When can I leave Earth?"

Fun fact: Pluto was originally a moon. It was a moon of Neptune but somehow millions of years ago, it escaped its orbit.

While most people seem intrigued by Saturn due to it's impressive ring system, I always felt that Neptune was the coolest looking planet. Neptune has that gorgeous blue color.

Neptune: "I WILL kill you".
Me: "But because my suit is so high tech..."
