Since Uranus' orbit is exceptionally slow, orbiting the sun about once every 84 Earth years, it'll be mostly in the same spot it was this year when Earth comes around again next year.

That long-term tracking provided a more precise rotation period for Uranus, the seventh planet from the sun. From that distance, it takes about 84 Earth years for Uranus to orbit the sun.

They saw that the dynamic pressure of the solar wind increased by a factor of 20, meaning that it dramatically compressed the magnetosphere of Uranus. They then looked at eight months of solar wind ...
