What else can I help you with?
Do inferior planets orbit the sun clockwise?
NO. They orbit counterclockwise (anticlockwise) when viewed from above the Earth's north pole, which is the usual convention. (Mercury and Venus are called the "inferior planets" because their orbits are between the Sun and the Earth.)
All comets orbit the Sun in the same direction as the planets?
False. While most comets orbit the Sun in the same direction as the planets (counterclockwise when viewed from above Earth's North Pole), there are exceptions. Some comets have retrograde orbits, meaning they orbit in the opposite direction of the planets.
Do all planets orbit counterclockwise around the sun?
All of the planets in our solar system orbit the sun in the same direction, but at varying speeds depending on distance from the sun. If looked at from above the earths north pole, they would go counter clockwise.
Do all 8 planets orbit the sun counter-clockwise?
Yes, all of the planets in out solar system orbit the sun counterclockwise (anticlockwise) when viewed from above the north pole looking 'down'. Not all of them rotate counterclockwise on their axis though, the two exceptions are Venus and Uranus.
Do planets move around the sun in the opposite direction then the sun turns?
No, planets in our solar system all orbit the Sun in the same counterclockwise direction as the Sun rotates on its axis.
If you view our solar system from ecliptic north what is the direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) of the orbit of Venus around the Sun Of the orbit of Earth around the Sun?
When viewed from ecliptic north, both Venus and Earth orbit the Sun in a counterclockwise direction. This counterclockwise motion is consistent for all planets in our solar system, as they all orbit the Sun in the same direction due to the initial angular momentum of the solar nebula from which they formed.
How many moons do the suns have?
The Sun has no moons. Moons orbit Planets > Planets orbit the Sun.
Does the sun orbit the planets or do the planets orbit the sun?
The planets orbit the Sun. The Sun is at the center of our solar system and does not move.
Does the sun orbit the planets?
No. The planets orbit the Sun and the Sun orbits itself.
What do the planets and the sun orbit?
the sun does not move, the planets orbit around the sun idiot.
What is the direction of revolution of the planets in our solar system?
The planets revolve (orbit) in an anticlockwise direction when observed from a point high above the Earth's north pole.
Can planets and stars orbit around the sun?
Planets orbit the sun. Stars do not.
