Triton
Triton is the largest of Neptune's 13 moons and is unique due to its retrograde orbit, meaning it orbits Neptune in the opposite direction of the planet's rotation. Scientists believe Triton was a Kuiper Belt Object captured by Neptune's gravity millions of years ago.

This picture was taken by the Voyager 2 spacecraft in 1989 - the only spacecraft ever to visit Neptune. Neptune will be the farthest planet from the Sun until 1999, when the elliptical orbit of Pluto will cause it to once again resume this status. Neptune, like Uranus, is composed mostly of liquid water, methane and ammonia, is surrounded by a thick gas atmosphere of mostly hydrogen and helium, and has many moons and rings. Neptune's moon Triton is unlike any other and has active volcanoes. The nature of Triton's unusual orbit around Neptune is the focus of much discussion and speculation.
