What Would You See If You Fell Into Neptune 4K UHD

Neptune holds many mysteries but thanks to an old spacecraft and scientists using ground-based telescopes we have an idea of what lurks inside of the strange ice giant So lets put on our super science fiction space suits and dive directly into Neptune But what will we find Want to help support my channel and also get added benefits Then why not become a Patron today a https 3A 2F 2Fwww patreon com 2FV101Science a Or maybe purchase some of our awesome merchandise T-shirts hoodies mugs Phone cases it's all available now on YouTube Also check out our Amazon store Just click on the link below to find loads of awesome items - a https 3A 2F 2Fwww amazon com 2Fshop 2Fv101science a US Version a https 3A 2F 2Fwww amazon co uk 2Fshop 2Fv101sci a UK Version REMEMBER TO SUBSCRIBE FOR MUCH MORE TO COME Subscribe - a https 3A 2F 2Fwww youtube com 2Fc 2FV101Science a Facebook - a https 3A 2F 2Fwww facebook com 2FV101Science a Twitter - a https 3A 2F 2Ftwitter com 2FV101Science a Instagram - a https 3A 2F 2Fwww instagram com 2Fv101 science 2F a 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 Attribution Music Erokia Sound Design - Ambient Wave 9 Hiding Your Reality - Kevin MacLeod incompetech com Licensed under Creative Commons By Attribution 3 0 License a http 3A 2F 2Fcreativecommons org 2Flicenses 2Fby 2F3 0 2F a DISCLAIMER This video description contains affiliate links which means that if you click on one of the product links I ll receive a small commission This helps support the channel and allows us to continue to make videos like this Thank you for your support
