Question

Why is Neptune called a blue planet?​

Answer 2

Neptune

• 8th planet in our solar system is Neptune.
• It appears blue in colour hence it got the name of a blue planet.
• It is quite far from the Sun and it's almost impossible to observe it without having a powerful device.
• It has a colder environment and life is not yet discovered in this planet.

Reason behind the Blue colour and a common misconception !!

• Earth appears blue in colour but the reason behind its bluish appearance is presence of water.

Now the question arises is it same for Neptune ?

• And the clear answer is no , the presence of methane gas in the Neptune is responsible for its bluish appearance but not the water because presence of water is not yet discovered in this planet like that of our mother earth.
