Triton is the only known large natural satellite to orbit its planet in retrograde (backwards).
The large Jovian moon thought to have been captured into its present orbit is Triton, which orbits Neptune. Triton's retrograde motion and unique characteristics suggest it was once a Kuiper Belt object that was captured by Neptune's gravity.
A large fish called the Maori Wrass (which also eats Crown-of-Thorns Starfish), as well as large Hermit Crabs and Octopus can eat adult Giant Triton Shells.
Triton is one of Neptunes moons. It's the seventh largest moon in the solar system and neptunes largest moon, discovered in 1846. It's the only large moon which orbits it's planet in the opposite direction to the planets spin direction.
Neptune's moons are Galatea, Despina, Thalassa, Naiad, Larissa, Proteus, Triton, and Nereid. Only Triton and Nereid are large enough to be seen by Earth-based telescopes.
Neptune's second-largest moon is Triton. It is the only large moon in the solar system to have a retrograde orbit, meaning it orbits in the opposite direction to Neptune's rotation. Triton is thought to be a captured Kuiper Belt object.
Triton is the largest of Neptune's 13 moons. It is unusual because it is the only large moon in our solar system that orbits in the opposite direction of its planet's rotation - a retrograde orbit
The only large moon in the solar system with a retrograde orbit is Triton, the largest moon of Neptune.
Triton is a moon of the planet Jupiter.
