The cutaway diagram from our interactive page of facts about Neptune, drawn in black and white for printing. A quarter of Neptune is cut away to show its layers, and leader lines connect each label to its part: the atmosphere, the icy mantle, the rocky core, the Great Dark Spot seen by Voyager 2, the white methane clouds, the faint rings and the moons Triton and Proteus.

Thin outer layers are drawn thicker than scale so children can see them, and moons are not to scale. Use it as a notebook page next to the planet's fact profile, or as a guide for a planet report. To see where Neptune sits among its neighbors, print the solar system printable.

Tips for using it

  • Point out that the Great Dark Spot was seen in 1989 and has since disappeared; Neptune's storms come and go.
  • Turn the sheet into a quiz by covering the labels with sticky notes.

Questions

Is the Great Dark Spot still there?

No. Voyager 2 saw it in 1989, and a few years later Hubble found it had vanished. New dark storms have appeared since.

Is there a blank version?

Yes. Choose Blank or Numbered in the sheet options above to print a version with empty boxes or numbered lines, each with an answer key.
