Do the other planets spin?
All the planets that we know about spin, yes. Some spin faster or slower, or on a different axis, but they all spin.
What makes a solar system spin?
what makes it spin is the force of gravity in space that keep our planets in place anbd how they move.(the solar system is spining right now.)
What two planets spin the opposite way?
Venus and Uranus?
What is the name for the movement of the planets as they spin on their axis?
It is called rotation.
What is the difference of The rotational period of the inner and outer planets?
Rotational time of the planets is random (the length of the planet's day), but the outer planets do spin faster than the inner planets.

Why does Jupiter have to spin?
The planet Jupiter must spin to keep its self up its called gravity and without it all the planets would go around space and collide of worse so it must "spin" to keep "afloat "
What Is DS9?
DS9 refers to the Star Trek spin off series, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
What is meant by the rotation of planets?
It means they spin. They turn in space, pivoting around an invisible axis that runs from pole to pole through each planet. Different planets spin at different speeds, and their spins are not perfectly aligned with their orbits (revolution) around the Sun. The spin or rotation of the Earth is what makes the Sun appear to move across the sky.
Do planets spin by themselves?
Yes.
What is the planets spin on its axis?
rotation
Why does the sun spin on it's own axis?
Because It Has To Spin Like Planets Do
Do you need to constantly fuel planets to spin and revolve?
I would think nothing at all nothing's stopping them spinning- space doesn't offer any resistance
What makes the earth spin?
The spin of the Earth is residual from the formation of the solar system. The original "whirlpools" of matter started to spin as they orbited the sun due to the Coriolis force acting on them. This caused them to spin around the planets. his spin stayed after the planets firmed up into discrete balls
What the space spin in?
More space?
Do planets rotate clockwise or counterclockwise?
They spin clockwise
