Where does Earth rotate from to?
West to east. Or, as viewed from high above the north pole, 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.
What direction does Venus spin on its axis?
Venus rotates clockwise, when viewed from above the Earth's North Pole.
What directions do ocean currents move?
currents rise and then go down ,which it in cycle to add on to the above; the currents move clockwise in the northern hemisphere and counter-clockwise in the southern hemisphere
What is difference between prograde rotation and retrograde rotation?
Prograde rotation turns counter clockwise while retrograde rotation turns clockwise. ( As viewed from above the Earth's North Pole.)
What direction is the earth spinning in?
counter-clock wise from east to west, as viewed from above the north pole.

Venus and Uranus are the only planets that do not rotate counter-clockwise.
What direction does Venus spin on its axis?
Venus rotates clockwise, when viewed from above the Earth's North Pole.
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.
What planet revolves different from all other planets.It goes counter-clockwise?
Both Venus and Uranus have a retrograde axial spin, they rotate clockwise when viewed from above their north pole. All of the other planets rotate anticlockwise (counter clockwise).

What planet rotates by retrograde motion?
Both Venus and Uranus have a retrograde axial spin, they rotate clockwise when viewed from above their north pole. All of the other planets rotate anticlockwise (counter clockwise).
What planet rotates retrograde motion?
Both Venus and Uranus have a retrograde axial spin, they rotate clockwise when viewed from above their north pole. All of the other planets rotate anticlockwise (counter clockwise).
Does Mercury rotate to the left?
As viewed from above its north pole, yes. All planets except Venus which rotates clockwise , and Uranus which is tilted 90 degrees rotate counter clockwise when viewed from above. Here is a link you can copy and paste for a little more information: http://www.ucolick.org/~mountain/AAA/031017.html
