* Characterize Neptune's atmosphere: Measure atmospheric composition, temperature, pressure, and wind speeds.
* Study Neptune's rings: Determine their composition, structure, and origin.
* Observe Neptune's moons: Discover new moons, map their surfaces, and analyze their geological features.
* Investigate Neptune's magnetic field: Determine its strength, shape, and orientation.
* Search for additional planets beyond Neptune: While this was not a primary objective, Voyager 2's trajectory did allow for a search for potential additional planets in the outer solar system.
Beyond these specific goals, Voyager 2's flyby of Neptune provided valuable information that helped us understand the formation and evolution of the outer solar system, the nature of giant planets, and the dynamics of planetary systems in general.
