What is the orbit of the Neptune? Orbital period 165 years

Is the Sun at the center of the Neptune's orbit? Neptune orbits our Sun, a star, and is the eighth planet from the Sun at a distance of about 2.8 billion miles (4.5 billion kilometers)

Describe the motion of Neptune throughout its orbit? Does it move at constant speed? One day on Neptune takes about 16 hours (the time it takes for Neptune to rotate or spin once). And Neptune makes a complete orbit around the Sun (a year in Neptunian time) in about 165 Earth years (60,190 Earth days). Sometimes Neptune is even farther from the Sun than dwarf planet Pluto.
