=== Historical Background ===
In Greek mythology, Proteus is a shapeshifting god of the sea who resided on the island of Pharos near Egypt in the Mediterranean Sea. He had the power to see the future, but would not reveal any details to humans unless they can capture him. To avoid capture, he would change his shape (he cannot lie). He was usually depicted as an old man. His lineage has varied through Greek history, sometimes being the son of Poseidon, sometimes Nereus, sometimes Oceanus. Proteus is also the origin of the adjective protean (meaning mutable, shifting, adaptible, flexible, able to change form). 
Proteus is also the name of a moon of Neptune discovered by Voyager 2 on July 7th, 1989. This moon is irregularly shaped, appearing as a lumpy, uneven object that is almost, but not quite, a sphere. It is considered the largest a body could get without forming a spherical or spheroidal shape. It is 440km in diameter. While smaller bodies were discovered before it via telescope (i.e. Nereid), because Proteus orbits very close to Neptune, it was lost in the planet's glare. Proteus is a very dark body, having a color comparable to soot.
