When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers,... Psalm 8:3
"Most moons orbit their host planet in the same direction as the planet rotates, called a prograde orbit.
*But Jupiter’s moons have a band of outer moons which go around the opposite way, called a retrograde orbit.
This poses a challenge for the conventional naturalistic explanation of planetary formation called the Nebular Hypothesis.
In this, a putative swirling cloud of dust and gas accretes to form the planets and moons of our solar system.
---If this were true, then the planets and moons should all rotate and orbit in the same direction, but they don’t.
Among the newly discovered moons there was an oddball prograde moon, dubbed Valetudo, which is hurtling around Jupiter in the opposite direction to its immediate neighbors risking a head-on collision. The report from researcher Scott Sheppard and published by Carnegie Science said:
---this prograde moon orbiting in the midst of retrograde moons could not have been there for millions or billions of years.
The observable evidence is entirely consistent with the solar system being created just six thousand years ago on Day 4 of Creation Week."

As a result, head-on collisions are much more likely to occur between the ‘oddball’ prograde and the retrograde moons, which are moving in opposite directions. “This is an unstable situation,” said Sheppard. “Head-on collisions would quickly break apart and grind the objects down to dust.”Clearly,
