Tura is the largest moon of the innermost gas giant in its solar system, a Neptune-sized planet called Merot in a somewhat eccentric orbit that has swept the system clear of what would have been its major asteroid belt. A small world with a rocky composition, Tura has only a trace atmosphere (consisting mostly of nitrogen) and a surface gravity of about one tenth standard. It receives, on average, about as much sunlight as Ceres does; it orbits Merot once every fifty-one hours.
