There have been no space shuttle landings on Neptune. It would be impossible to land on Neptune for two reasons:
1 - Neptune is a gas giant
2 - Neptune is freezing cold, electronic equipment would freeze and malfunction

Was there any space flights to Neptune?
No. The space shuttle merely orbits the Earth and isn't built for travel within the solar system. Even if it was, it would take at least a decade, at a guess, to get there.
How long would it take to get to the planet Neptune?
It would depend on the path chosen and on where Neptune and Earth were in their orbits. Voyager 2 spacecraft was launched on Aug 20, 1977 and it reached Neptune on Aug 24, 1989. So, Voyager 2 took about twelve years to reach Neptune.
Does it takes twelve Earth years to get to Neptune from Earth?
using a shuttle it would take ~11.25 years
How long does it take Triton to revolve around Neptune?
it take Triton about 6 days to orbit Neptune
What type of spacecraft can go to Neptune?
A probe would have to go to Neptune. It can either fly-by or orbit the planet. Our current technology is not advanced enough to put man in space further than our own orbit. Our current space shuttles are only designed to orbit the Earth and Moon. In order to go further, shuttle technology would have to be heavily upgraded, which would be very expensive and would take a very long time. Nothing can land on Neptune because it is a gas giant, meaning it has no solid surface.
How long does it take to get to the moon with a space shuttle?
The Space Shuttle is not capable of going to the moon.
How long does it take the space shuttle to reach space stations?
It takes the Shuttle about 2 days to reach the International Space Station.
How long does it take to get into space?
Depends on your speed. The space shuttle can be in space in about 8 minutes.
How long did the space race take?
8 minutes for the shuttle to go to space
