Venus is the planet that rotates from top to bottom, or retrograde, instead of the more common side-to-side rotation. This means it rotates in the opposite direction to most planets in the solar system, including Earth. As a result, on Venus, the Sun rises in the west and sets in the east. Additionally, Venus has a very slow rotation period, taking about 243 Earth days to complete one rotation.
