  • Neptune: The Solar System's Longest Orbital Period - Explained
    The planet that takes the longest time to orbit the sun is Neptune.

    Here's why:

    * Kepler's Laws of Planetary Motion: One of Kepler's laws states that the square of a planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of its average distance from the sun. This means the farther a planet is from the sun, the longer it takes to complete one orbit.

    * Neptune's Distance: Neptune is the farthest planet from the sun in our solar system.

    * Orbital Period: Neptune takes approximately 165 Earth years to complete one orbit around the sun.
