Global Warming Hits the Edge of the Solar System!

just before lunchtime on Wednesday, the 25th of June 2008 by Capt Jake Fortune

Neptune has 13 known moons, six of which were discovered by Voyager 2. The largest, Triton, orbits Neptune in a direction opposite to the direction of the planet’s rotation. Triton is the coldest body yet visited in our solar system—temperatures on its surface are about -391 degrees Fahrenheit (-235 degrees Celsius). Despite this deep freeze, Voyager 2 discovered geysers spewing icy material upward more than five miles (eight kilometers). Triton’s thin atmosphere, also discovered by Voyager, has been seen from Earth several times since, and is growing warmer—although scientists do not yet know why.

Why, that is obviously caused by SUVs here on Earth.  I mean, scientific consensus says it’s so.

    Egads!

    Al Gore is right:
    The Earth has a fever.
    Jupiter has Herpes
    And now Neptune is retaining water!

    (I’m not even going to talk about what’s wrong with Uranus)
