Scientists Ask Whether Neptune's Moon Triton Could Be Habitable
Original: Could Neptune’s Moon Triton Be Habitable?
Attention is turning to Triton, Neptune's largest moon, with a question now being widely raised: could it be habitable? Triton is a frozen world with a thin nitrogen atmosphere, geysers, and a retrograde orbit suggesting it was captured from the Kuiper Belt, making it an unusual candidate for habitability discussions. Interest in outer-planet moons keeps growing as space agencies weigh future missions to icy ocean worlds.
Why now: Curiosity about potentially habitable ocean worlds in the outer solar system is drawing attention to Triton.
