On Earth, a year is the time Earth takes to travel once around the Sun. The term "year", applied to other planets, may either refer to a standard Earth year, which is a very convenient unit of time, or to the time the planet takes to go once around the Sun. As an example, a "year" on Jupiter takes about 12 Earth years.

What is the longest year on what planet?
The longest year on any planet that circles around our sun is on Pluto, which one year on Pluto roughly is 248 Earth years. <><><><><> Since Pluto is no longer considered to be a planet, the role of longest year falls to Neptune, with 168.4 years.
Can a planets day be longer than a planets year?
No, a planet's day cannot be longer than its year. A day is defined as the time it takes for a planet to complete one full rotation on its axis, while a year is the time it takes for the planet to complete one orbit around its star. A planet's year is always longer than its day.

What is a planet year?
A year by definition is the time it takes a planet to orbit the Sun, therefore a planet year is different depending on what planet you are discussing. a planet closer to the Sun would have a shorter year (less distance to travel) whereas a planet farther from the Sun would have a longer year (more distance to travel)This is the time taken for the planet to orbit once around the sun. An earth year is still an earth year, regardless of what plaet you are on.The period of time that it takes for a planet in our solar system to make a complete revolution around the sun.As such due to their differing orbits this can vary considerably from an 88 day year for Mercury (approx. 1/4 of an Earth year) up to a 90,613 day year for Pluto (approx. 248 Earth years).
