Retrograde motion or flow signifies a backward, reverse, or contrary direction to the usual. In astronomy, this term is used to describe the apparent backward movement of planets as observed from Earth, a phenomenon that occurs due to the relative positions and movements of Earth and the other...
Retrograde revolution:This refers to an orbital motion which is really backwards relative to normal orbital motions.No planet has a retrograde orbital motion, but some of the moons of the outer planets move backwards relative to the general motion of the other moons of those planets, and man...
Actin flow refers to the motion of the F-actin cytoskeleton and has been observed in many different cell types, especially in motile cells including neuronal growth cones. The direction of the actin flow is generally retrograde from the periphery toward the center of the cell. Actin flow can ...

Anterograde refers to transport from the cell body through the axon to the presynaptic terminal; retrograde refers to tracing in the opposite direction—transport from the synaptic terminal back to the cell body (Figure 6.9). Some tracers are strictly capable of only anterograde or retrograde ...
one of which isHalley’s Comet, move in a retrograde orbit. A separate sense of the term retrograde motion refers to the apparent brief reversal of the motion of a planet as seen from Earth; the effect depends upon the difference in orbital speeds of the planets....
degree that Mercury later returns to in retrograde motion. The shadow period ends when Mercury again passes over the degree at which it first turned retrograde. The shadow period is different than Mercury’sstormperiod in astrology, which refers to the period when Mercury is moving especially ...
But when Vampire Warrioress Selene, resplendent in glossy black latex, is caught up in the whirl of cinema magic—suspension-of-disbelief, plus 360 degree motion capture—everything worked out fine? Weirdly enough, I’d look at it playing back and go, ‘I’d buy that.’ I don’t feel...
