Larissa
Definition
- Larissa is the fifth moon of Neptune in order from the planet. It was discovered in 1981 by the American space engineer Harold Reitsema and his colleagues from ground-based stellar occultation observations, although the first (and so far only) images of it were obtained in 1989 by Voyager 2. Larissa is named after a lover of Poseidon (Neptune) in Greek mythology and is also known as Neptune VII.
