Elon Musk is Going to TRITON | Documentary in 8K | The Elusive MOON of Neptune
Neptune, like the other gas giants in our solar system, doesn't have much of a solid surface to live on. But the planet's largest moon, Triton, could make an interesting place to set up a space colony.
So far, only a single spacecraft has ever visited Triton. In the summer of 1989, Voyager 2 flew by Neptune and its system and was able to photograph the southern hemisphere of the moon.
Images show that Triton's surface, which is mostly made up of rock and nitrogen ice, has cratered and smooth regions existing side by side. These smooth areas are the result of plumes of dust and nitrogen gas that erupt out of the moon's crust, and then get gently blown around by Triton's tenuous atmosphere. It's not clear, however, how dangerous those geysers would be to anyone standing next to them.
