Venus and Uranus are the only planets that do not rotate counter-clockwise.
There are two planets that rotate clockwise, i.e. with retrograde motion; Venus and Uranus.
east to west (clockwise)
Venus and Uranus are the two planets that rotate clockwise, also known as retrograde rotation, in our solar system. This means that their rotation is opposite to the majority of the other planets, which rotate counterclockwise.
Planets in our solar system rotate counterclockwise on their axes, except for Venus and Uranus which rotate clockwise. All planets orbit the Sun counterclockwise when viewed from above the North Pole of the solar system, except for Venus and Uranus which orbit clockwise.
Venus As well as Venus, Uranus is generally said to be rotating clockwise as well. But it is also tilted, so it can be said to be rotating either clockwise or anti-clockwise, depending on whether one thinks it is inclined 82° in one direction, or 98° in the opposite direction !
Both Venus and Uranus have retrograde, i.e. clockwise, rotation.
Within the nine old planets, 3 of them have retrograde rotation: rotate clockwise (westward). They are Venus, Uranus and Pluto. Mercury, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune have direct rotation: rotate anti-clockwise (eastward). All the nine planets revolve around the sun eastward or anti 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).
Every planet except Venus and Uranus in our solar system rotates counterclockwise as viewed from above the North Pole of the planet. Venus has a slow clockwise rotation and Uranus rotates on its side.
Yes. All of the major planets except Venus rotate (spin) counterclockwise, west to east.
Venus rotates clockwise.
