Default Neptune makes one complete orbit since its discovery!

Since its discovery on the night of 23-24 September 1846, Neptune has made one complete orbit around the Sun!

Here are the highlights of what happened in that time:

That... is amazing.

Even this tiny insignificant little solar system has an amazing scale.

Neptune's orbit is 165 years. It's amazing it's only gone around once in that time. As HNM said, space is big!
