What else can I help you with?
Which planet spins 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 !
How does Jupiter rotate?
Jupiter rotates on its axis, completing one full rotation approximately every 9.9 hours. This rapid rotation causes the planet to have an oblate shape, bulging at the equator and flattening at the poles.
What planet spins from top to bottom?
Venus is the only planet in our solar system that rotates clockwise (from east to west), which is technically considered spinning from top to bottom. This opposite direction of rotation is unique among the planets.
Does Mars rotate clockwise or counter clockwise?
Mars rotates on its axis in the same direction as Earth, which is counterclockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. This means that if you were standing on Mars's surface, the Sun would rise in the east and set in the west, similar to how it appears on Earth.
What planets spin differently?
No. They all rotate anti clockwise. The only planet viewed from the "north" that rotates clockwise is Venus. Because of their angle of tilt > 90O Uranus and Pluto could be said to have a retrograde rotation, but if you adjusted their "north pole" to the same direction as the rest of the planets they would also rotate anti clockwise.
What is the unique feature of of Venus?
It's the only known planet that spins clockwise (backwards)
What is the only planet in your solar system that rotates counter clockwise?
There are two, Venus and Uranus.
Does Venus spin clockwise or counter clockwise?
Yes. All of the planets (not just Venus) orbit the Sun in a counterclockwise direction as viewed from the arbitrary location "above" the orbital plane. Venus has the distinction of being the only planet to have a reverse "spin" or rotation about its axis. This is currently thought to have been caused by a large collision early in the planet's formation.Venus spins once about every 243 Earth days, and orbits the Sun about once every 225 Earth days.

What is the only country in the world where windmills turn clockwise instead of counter clockwise?
Northern Ireland!
What planet is blue and spins differently from all the others?
Uranus is blue/green and it's rotational axis is horizontal from our perspective where all other planets tend to a more vertical spin. Which is probably the closest match considering the vagueness of the question. However, Neptune is the blue planet. Venus is the only planet that spins in the opposite direction (clockwise) from the others but it is a yellowy white.
Does Mars rotate clockwise or counter clockwise?
Mars rotates on its axis in the same direction as Earth, which is counterclockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. This means that if you were standing on Mars's surface, the Sun would rise in the east and set in the west, similar to how it appears on Earth.

Which is the only planet to orbit in a different direction?
none of them orbit in a different direction they all orbit the sun in a counter-clockwise rotation. you may be thinking of how they are tilted because only on planet is tilted nearly onits side: Uranus which is tilted at 98degrees
Which planet rotates counterclockwise?
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).
