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...
A retrograde orbit refers to the motion of an object in a direction opposite to the majority of other objects in its population, such as in the case of some Trans-Neptunian Binaries (TNB) switching from direct to retrograde orbits due to angular momentum transfer during collisional evolution. ...
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 ...
Why does Venus rotate backward from the other planets? How long does it take for the Sun to rotate on its axis? What produces the retrograde motion of Mars? What planet spins on its side? Do all planetary systems orbit in the same direction? Circular orbital motion refers to How i...

It might seem like a low-key pose at first glance, but a restorative and grounding corpse pose is often the most important asana you can include in your yoga practice, especially when it's mental clarity you're seeking. Savoring stillness is key to finding beautiful, ...
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 ...
Mercury is retrograde from July 26th to August 19th. Mercury’s shadow period begins July 7th, 2018, and ends September 2nd, 2018. Note that the shadow period begins before Mercury turns retrograde–when Mercury first passes over the degree that Mercury later returns to in retrograde motion. T...
In the inertial frame, the general motion of a DRO is retrograde with smaller periodic oscillations or loop that cause the motion of the spacecraft to oscillate between retrograde and direct motion as it proceeds around Moon [15]. Due to this motion, DROs cannot be described in term of cla...
