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.
What do moons rotate on?
The moon rotates on its own geometrical axis. It revolves around the Earth.
Does the moon rotate around Jupiter?
The moon we see doesn't, but all of Jupiter's moons do. (About 50)
What are 3 distinctive characteristics of orbit of planet and moon in the solar system?
1). They orbit in the same around the sun, and as the sun. 2). Orbits of planets and their larger moons are in just about the same plane. 3). Almost all planets and moons rotate on their axes in the same direction as the planets orbit the sun.
What fraction of the planets have moons?
Mercury and Venus don't have moons, the other 6 planets do, so that's 6/8 of the planets. If you feel like reducing it, that's equal to 3/4.

What planet rotates in the opposite direction from other planets and moons?
Venus is the obviousexample, butUranus does this too. (Also some moons rotate in unusual directions.)
Far above the earth's north pole the orbital motion of the planets is?
It is anticlockwise (or counterclockwise), moving in the direction opposite to the hands of an ordinary clock. Most planets and moons (earth and its moon included) rotate in this direction as well.
What fraction of the planets does not have moons?
Mercury has no moons, Venus has no moons, that is 2 Earth Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune all have moons, that is 6 Therefore the fraction of planets with out moons in the solar system is 1/3
Does only the earth rotate on its axis?
No, all the planets, moons, asteroids and the sun do.
What do moons rotate on?
The moon rotates on its own geometrical axis. It revolves around the Earth.
What planet rotates in the opposite direction from the most other planets and moons?
Venus and Uranus rotate in what is called retrograde motion.
Does the moon rotate around Jupiter?
The moon we see doesn't, but all of Jupiter's moons do. (About 50)
How is the rotation of venues different from that of most other planets and moons?
It's backwards. Venus rotates the opposite direction from most other moons and planets.
How the rotation of Venus different from that of most other planets and moons?
It's backwards. Venus rotates the opposite direction from most other moons and planets.
