Behind the poster
About Neptune.
Neptune is the farthest planet from the Sun, about 30 times farther out than Earth, where sunlight takes more than four hours to arrive. It was the first planet found by mathematics before anyone saw it: astronomers predicted where it had to be from the pull it had on Uranus, and spotted it there in 1846.
This deep blue world has the fastest winds measured in the solar system, more than 2,000 km/h (about 1,200 mph). Voyager 2, the only spacecraft to fly past, found a dark storm about the size of Earth there in 1989.
A year on Neptune lasts 164.8 Earth years. It completed its first full orbit since its discovery only in 2011, and no one alive today will see it finish another.
