Triton is my favorite moon. It's the most mysterious moon (IMO). Not much is known about Triton, because it's been over 20 years since Voyager 2 got a glimpse of it. It's geologically active for such a far away moon, and has a retrograde orbit being the 7th largest moon, and having an axial tilt of 157 degrees to Neptune, and its orbital inclination is 30 degrees, so mostly the poles face the Sun, so it must have very unusual seasonal changes. Its atmosphere and composition should be like Pluto.

They also discovered Liquid Nitrogen Geysers erupting from Triton's surface, with atmospheric wind currents blowing the cold liquid vapor particle streams downwind....
