NASA researchers have discovered that images from the Hubble Space Observatory have provided new information on the origins of the mysterious little moon orbiting the planet Neptune.
Scientists have discovered the Moon in 2013, one of 14 satellites orbiting the cold planet.
The Moon is about 34 kilometers long and its mass is only one-thousandth of its mass, the closest Protos to Neptune, circling more than 418 kilometers in orbit. Refers to the possibility of separation of the small moon from its big neighbor after a meteor collision with the Great Moon "Protos" billions of years ago.
