Today we’re rounding out our planetary tour with ice giants Uranus and Neptune. Both have small rocky cores, thick mantles of ammonia, water, and methane, and atmospheres that make them look greenish and blue.

Both have rings and moons, with Neptune’s Triton probably being a captured iceball that has active geology.
