When Pluto was considered a planet why was neptune the farthest planet from the sun from 1979 to 1999?
Neptune's orbit is more elliptical than Pluto's, causing their orbits to sometimes intersect. From 1979 to 1999, Neptune's elliptical orbit brought it closer to the sun than Pluto, making Neptune the farthest planet from the sun during that time.

Is Pluto the closest planet to the sun?
The orbit of the dwarf planet Pluto is quite eccentric, meaning it's more of an oval than a circle. It actually comes "inside" the orbit of Neptune for a part of its orbit. Aphelion, its farthest distance is about 7,375,927,931 km or 4,583,189,130 miles away while Perihelion its closest distance is about 4,436,824,613 km or 2,756,915,000 miles away.
What planet is the farthest from the earth?
Neptune is the furthest planet from the Earth.Previously the furthest planet was Pluto, however is it no longer officially classed as a planet.As far as those bodies officially considered planets today, Neptune is farthest from earth.

Pluto would be the furthest away from us normally, but it is not regarded as a planet now, and in fact it can occasionally be nearer to the sun than Neptune. So the answer is that Neptune is the planet furthest away from us, within our solar system. There are planets in other solar systems and new ones are still being discovered and they are much further from us than Neptune.As far as those bodies officially considered planets today, Neptune is farthest from earth. Some of the dwarf planets - Pluto being best known - are farther away.Pluto is no longer considered a planet so Neptune
