How long does it take Callisto to rotate on its axis?
16.68 days
Do all comets rotate on their axis counterclockwise?
No. Not even all planets rotate in the same direction (Venus is retrograde; Uranus is sideways); the rotation of (much smaller) comets is essentially random.
Are there any exceptions to the rule that planets rotate with small axis tilts and in the same direction that they orbit the Sun?
Venus, Uranus and Pluto are exceptions.
What does the moon do on its axis?
Rotate
Direction planets rotate?
In our solar system, most planets rotate counter-clockwise as seen looking down on their north poles (north poles as defined by the International Astronomical Union). They all orbit the Sun in this same direction. On Earth this is noticeable in the direction the Sun moves through the daytime sky. As the Earth rotates on its axis, the Sun seems to rise in the east and set in the west. Venus is a notable exception. It rotates in the opposite, clockwise, direction. Uranus is titled "sideways", with its axis almost in line with its orbital plane. However it does rotate in the same direction as Venus, just about.
How long does it take Callisto to rotate on its axis?

How does Venus rotate on its axis?
It has a retrograde spin, spinning in the opposite direction to most other planets.
Why does surface tension happens?
It Occurs when you have particles that rotate in an ANTI-Clockwise direction and spin in an axis.
What two planets rotate with small axis tilts and in the same direction that they orbit the Sun?
Mercury and Jupiter.
Do earth rotate on an axis?
Yes the Earth does rotate on an axis.
Does Saturn rotate on its axis?
Yes. All planets rotate about an axis.
What direction does Jupiter rotate on its axis?
Jupiter rotates on its axis in an anti clockwise direction. I hope this helped you. 😄 Small improvement : Yes that's the answer, but for completeness you need to say "when viewed from above the north pole".
Does the earth spin rotate on its axis?
Yes, the Earth does rotate on its axis.
To turn on an axis?
It's rotate!
Which planets rotate on an axis?
All of the planets in the Universe rotate on an axis. They all do.
Do all comets rotate on their axis counterclockwise?
No. Not even all planets rotate in the same direction (Venus is retrograde; Uranus is sideways); the rotation of (much smaller) comets is essentially random.
What is Neptunes time to rotate on its axis?
Neptune's rotation period takes 16hours and 17minutes to rotate on its axis.
