Neptune



Neptune is a planet within the Terran Solar System, located at coordinates 4,0,5. In Ultima II it is possible to visit Neptune using a rocket ship which can be acquired in the year 2112 A.D., from the post-apocalyptic Soviet settlement of Pirates Harbour.

Description
The blue ice giant known to modern science was not the Neptune in Minax's twenty-second century universe. Instead, the Neptunian surface, rather than being an amalgam of ice and rock, consisted almost entirely of sweeping and largely barren plains. A small enclave of computer programmers, entrenched near the solitary mountain on the planet comprised the only intelligent life on the planet, although its origins are unclear.

It is not certain that this strange Neptune vanished along with other abnormalities of the time stream following the death of Minax, although it seems likely, given the lack of explicit evidence mentioned by the modern astronomers and cosmologists of the Avatar's modern Earth.
