...Think about that...

William Herschel, the man who discovered Uranus, lived to be 83 years old, nearly the same time as the orbit. Neptune was discovered by two men. One who predicted its orbit and the other who actually looked for it at the predicted location and saw it. Add up the total ages of both of those men and you get the orbit period of Neptune . Think about that!
