Almost all of the material that formed the Solar system revolved around the Sun in one direction. This represents the conservation of angular momentum when the material contracted to form the Sun and its planetary disk. Since then, collisions and localized gravity have created exceptions to the general counter-clockwise rule (Venus spins slowly clockwise on its axis).
The Earth rotates (spins) on its axis counter-clockwise, and orbits the Sun counter-clockwise as well, as viewed from the North Pole of the Earth or Sun. These are arbitrary concepts of "above" and "below" the plane of the Solar System. The Moon also revolves around the Earth counter-clockwise.
What else can I help you with?
Does your planet spin clockwise?
Well the earth spins counter clockwise on its axis.
What is the direction of the earth's spin?
When looking from the north of earth it seems to rotate counter-clockwise.
Does the earth spin on its axis?
Yes. The Earth, if viewed from the North Pole rotates in a counter clockwise rotation.
How does the earth spin as it orbits the sun?
The Earth spins on its axis in the counter clockwise direction, when viewed from above the North Pole.
Does Mercury spin counterclockwise?
yes, mercury does spin counter clockwise.
Does Saturn spin clockwise or counter clockwise?
Jupiter spins counter clockwise. To be exact, it spins counterclockwise when viewed from above the north pole. That's the same direction of spin as most of the planets, including Earth.
Which way do storms that form north of the equator spin?
hurricanes north of the equtor spin counter clockwise and south is clockwise
Which way does a shuriken spin?
A shuriken is also known as a throwing star. Which way a shuriken spins depends on the motion of your wrist as you throw. You can make it go clockwise, or counter clockwise.
Does the moon move clockwise or counter-clockwise around earth?
The moon moves counter-clockwise around the earh
Why does a whirlpool spin counter clockwise?
A whirlpool spins counter clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere due to the Coriolis effect, a phenomenon caused by the Earth's rotation. This effect influences the direction of fluid motion, causing water to rotate counterclockwise around a low-pressure system in the Northern Hemisphere.
What Beyblades spin counter clockwise?
Beyblades that spin counter clockwise include Left Spin Beyblades such as the Spriggan series and Legend Spriggan. These Beyblades have a different spin direction from the traditional right spin Beyblades.
What direction does Venus spin on its axis?
Venus rotates clockwise, when viewed from above the Earth's North Pole.
