Which planet was farthest away from the sun from 1978-1999?
From 1930 (when Pluto was discovered) to 1978, Pluto was the most distant planet. In 1978, Pluto slipped inside Neptune's orbit. Neptune was the farthest planet from 1978 to 1999, and Pluto (which has a fairly high eccentricity) was farther away from 1999 to 2006.
