Venus is the planet that has no natural satellites (moons) and rotates on its axis in a retrograde direction, which means it rotates clockwise when viewed from above its north pole. It is unique as most other planets in our solar system rotate in a prograde direction.
Venus and Uranus are known for their retrograde revolution in our solar system.
Retrograde refers to a planetary movement in which specific planets turn in a different direction than others. Planets with retrograde movements are Uranus and Venus.
Neptune. The moon is called Triton.
The apparent westward movement of a planet is known as retrograde motion. This phenomenon occurs when a superior planet passes Earth in its orbit, making it appear to move backward in the sky relative to the stars.
It is the only large moon in the Solar System with a retrograde orbit, which is an orbit in the opposite direction to its planet's rotation.
Neptune has a moon named Triton that exhibits retrograde motion. Retrograde motion is when a moon orbits its planet in the opposite direction of the planet's rotation.
It is a Dwarf planet that has a retrograde axial spin or rotation. Clockwise from above its north pole.
The term "retrograde motion" means that a satellite (moon) moves in the opposite direction from what would be expected or common. A retrograde orbit is one opposite the rotation of the planet being orbited. This is the case with satellites of Jupiter and Saturn that are likely captured asteroids. The planet Venus exhibits retrograde rotation because it spins very slowly in a clockwise direction (as seen from above). The dwarf planet Pluto likewise rotates clockwise. All other planets display counter-clockwise rotations, and all planets orbit the Sun counter-clockwise. (The planet Uranus is tilted on its side, and could be considered retrograde as well.)
