Neptune radiates 2.6 times as much heat as it absorbs from the sun.
In fact, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune give off more energy than they
receive from the sun.

See NASA for proof.

These planets should be cooled down by now if the solor system is as old as
claimed.

Read it and weep.


Oh good grief! The only reason to weep is pity for
the poor dead horse you're flogging!

See Mark Isaak's Index of Creationist Claims CE231:

And now follow the link at the bottom of the page and
read the referenced section Dave Matson's article.

(Summary: Jupiter is still losing its primordial heat,
Saturn is being heated by the release of potential
energy as helium falls to the centre)

First telomere's and now gas giant radiation...which
one of Hovind's bullshit "young earth" arguments are
you going to come with next?
