The yellow "D" in table shows that the differences between the SW force from Jupiter and from the Sun. This reveals the strength of the two forces affecting the moons. It is the force of the space wind from the Sun that is main responsible for the strange orbit of the irregular moons. 

 

But not only the SW is important, also the acceleration due to gravity (ADG) from respectively Jupiter and the Sun is important.

 

The ADG caused by the Sun in Jupiter's orbit is only 0.0002 m/s (the same as the ADG caused by Jupiter in the orbit of the moon Sinope) That's why moons that far from Jupiter have such huge inclination. 

 

In the same way planets can become retrograde, stars can too. If stars gets retrograde it is causes by the space wind of the galaxy. 

 

Now we maybe could believe that the fast rotation of Jupiter would mean that Jupiter continual would accelerate its moons further and further out in space until the moons was lost. But this is not the way it works. Retrograde planets returns to the Jupiter..

We certainly have more to learn.

As you can tell from the above table, Uranus’ 9 outer moons are irregular, i.e. they are not following the planet’s equator plan (as the 16 inner moons) – 2 of the irregular moons are retrograde. 

Many scientists are confused when it comes to the cause for the many retrograde moons in our solar system. The thesis is: (as is often the case) It is coincidental.

Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune all have many irregular moons, including many retrograde moons.

The very large eccentricity of the outer moons is not strange and is (in most cases) not due to the so-called captured moons but are natural orbits. They arise because the space winds of the Sun and the mother planet accelerate the outer moons even more than what is caused by the acceleration due to gravity.

 

According to our understanding so far, we thought that Uranus once was struck by a large object from space and that this collision caused its strange rotation. However, Uranus’ inner (regular) moons are all moving in the planet’s equator plan.

If Uranus really was struck, then how would it be possible for Uranus’ (inner) moons to have followed suit? According to this theory, the inner moons orbit around Uranus’ equator plan because they are being affected by the space wind which is tied to Uranus – the strongest in the equator plan – which is why the inner moons follow the equator plan. Also the cause of the circulation of the rings of the gasplanets, is due to the space wind.
