In comparing the angles between the planets' rotational axes and their orbital planes, Jupiter deviates from the perpendicular by only 3.13°. Only two planets have less tilt: Mercury and Venus (Venus rotates backwards; it's called a retrograde rotation).

What planet is tilted on its axis the more than any other planets?

Uranus is the planet that is tilted on its axis more than any other planet in our solar system. Its axis is tilted at an angle of about 98 degrees, causing it to essentially roll on its side as it orbits the Sun.


Do Jupiter have a very tilted axis?

No, Jupiter does not have a very tilted axis like some other planets in our solar system. Jupiter's axis is only tilted by about 3 degrees, which is very close to being perpendicular to its orbit around the Sun.


Is the sun tilted?

The Sun is not tilted in the way that some planets are; it rotates on its axis, but its axis is not significantly tilted relative to its orbit around the Milky Way galaxy. However, its axis is tilted slightly in relation to its orbit around the center of the galaxy.

Which planet has imaginary line around which a planet spins?

The imaginary line around which a planet spins is known as its axis. All planets, including Earth, have an axis that runs from the North Pole to the South Pole. This axis is tilted at various angles for different planets, influencing their seasons and climate patterns. For example, Earth's axis is tilted at about 23.5 degrees.


Which planet's axis is not tilted?

There is more than one planet that has not tilt. The planets are Mercury, Venus, and Jupiter. The planet's also do not have seasons.
