I'm doing a project on Neptune and know that the gravity on this planet is 1.19. What types of activities can someone do on Neptune given this type of gravity? Thanks!

neptune is gas giant, so i don't think you can even land on it, because it's made of gas.

There is no solid surface on the Jovian planets to stand on; it's gas all the way down, getting denser and hotter as you near the core.
There is conjecture that there may be a world spanning ocean of liquid water (plus lots of other stuff dissolved in it; methane, CO2, tons of organics, etc) on Neptune and Uranus. This ocean would be hundreds of miles deep, thousands of degrees hot, and under enormous pressure, tens of thousands of atmospheres. It possible there may be life in this vast ocean, but not as we know it.
I'm not sure we can up with a wetsuit for you in the foreseeable future...
