Happy Birthday Neptune!

Neptune completes it's first orbit of the sun (since being observed by humans) this week!

Discovered 165 years ago during the James K Polk administration (our 11th President), it is finally completing its first observed orbit.

We knew you could do it our pale blue friend!

And a hearty congrats to President Polk, both for discovering our planetary neighbor and for the humility to not name it after himself. Bravo!
