Naming

edit

why did he name the planet neptune? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.172.200.10 (talkcontribs).

Actually, Galle did not name the new planet. Instead, the name was proposed by Urbain Le Verrier. See the relevant section in the Neptune article. Awolf002 02:20, 30 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

(in english version of 19-May 2013 02:15) The link (on the left-hand side) to the "Deutch" version points to http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pechofen (which is an existing article, but not the correct one)

The correct page can be reached via e.g. the french version to the correct http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Gottfried_Galle
