Jupiter and Neptune's Extreme Weather

The video explores the extreme weather conditions on Neptune and Jupiter. Neptune, located 2.8 billion miles from the Sun, experiences frigid temperatures and violent storms like the Great Dark Spot. Jupiter, a gas giant, has epic storms fueled by internal heat, with the Great Red Spot persisting for over 400 years. A demonstration of 500 mph winds illustrates the destructive power of Jupiter's storms.

What is the primary reason for the extreme weather on Neptune?
