What plant is tilted on it's side 98 degrees?
There are 8 planets in the Solar System. (There use to be 9 total planets in the Solar System) The planet that is tilted on its side at 98 degrees is Uranus.
Does the Earth spin on its axis in the same or opposite direction as the sun orbit?
All but one planet in our solar-system spins clockwise, that is venus. All other spins counter-clockwise or cyclonically. The Sun also spins Cyclonically, so the Earth spins in the same direction as the Sun.
What planet has 60 moons?
There is not a planet in our solar system with exactly 60 moons. Saturn has 62 known moons, and Jupiter has 66. As far as extrasolar planets, about 770 have been identified. However, it's a tricky business finding the planets at all; no extrasolar moons have yet been identified.
Why is earth probably the only planet in your solar system that has soil?
Soil (or in scientific terms - silicates) is found on all the inner planets, that is Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The outer planets also contain soil but in minute quantities.
What planet contains the majority of the mass in the solar system?
The majority of the mass in the solar system is contained in the sun, which is a star, not a planet. The Majority of the mass in the solar system outside of the sun is contained in the planet Jupiter.
When a planet spins in the opposite direction of the other planets in a solar system what is it called?
A retrograde motion.
When a planet spins the opposite direction of the other planets in a solar system it is called?
retrograde rotation
When a planet spins in the opposite direction of the other planets in a solar system it is called what?

What planet spins in the opposite direction of the other planets in a solar system it is called .?
This is called retrograde rotation. Within our solar system, the planets of Venus and Uranus have retrograde rotation.
What is a planet called when it spins in the opposite direction of the other planets in the solar system?
This is called retrograde rotation. Within our solar system, the planets of Venus and Uranus have retrograde rotation.

What planets rotate?
All planets in the solar system rotate, but not all in the same direction, Mercury, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune all rotate in one direction, while Venus, Uranus, and the dwarf planet Pluto rotate in the opposite direction.
Rotational movement opposite from that of most planets?
Venus rotates on its axis the opposite direction that it orbits, the opposite of most planets in the solar system. (Note that Uranus rotates on its side.)
What is different about Venus compared to the other planets?
Venus is the hottest planet in the Solar System even though it is the second closest to the Sun. The atmosphere traps the heat into the planet and heats it up.
Which planet doesnt rotate?
As far as we know it is not possible for a planet not to rotate, they all rotate because they have some form of gravity within them that gets them turning, perhaps you are thinking of Venus which turns in the opposite direction to all the other planets in our Solar System.
