Timeline of Neptune

This is the timeline of Neptune, and we're gonna show you the timeline:

4.6 Billion Years Ago

Neptune's core formed.

Neptune's core at the time was in a orbit near Jupiter and Saturn. Meaning it was closer to the Sun than Uranus.

4.5 Billion Years Ago

Neptune grew in size from collecting matter from the Solar Nebula.

4 Billion Years Ago

Jupiter and Saturn used there gravity to push Neptune farther out to where he is today.

Neptune captured Triton.

Neptune had another moon but crushed it with his roche limit and gained his rings.

Today

Neptune is the farthest planet from the Sun.

Dark spots form in Neptune's atmosphere.

Future:

3.6 Billion Years From Now

Triton gets too close to Neptune and is violently ripped apart in Neptune's roche limit and not forms a ring around Neptune, this ring would be even thicker than Saturn's. This is the death of Triton.

5 Billion Years From Now

Neptune is now the 6th closest planet from Sun due to the Sun's Red Giant Phase.
