No, Triton is actually 4x smaller than Earth. Still, this does not change the fact that a lot of people are highly interested in Triton. They believe that this is one of the moons wherein people can probably create a colony in the future.

There are still not enough pieces of evidence that will prove that this is possible especially since it was only visited once by a space aircraft. This moon that was discovered back in 1846 is fascinating to a lot of people because of its uniqueness. Some may know Triton but will not be familiar with the other moons in the solar system. Neptune has 13 moons but a lot of people only know Triton as Neptune’s biggest moon.
