Venus is the planet that does not rotate on a top to bottom axis like the other planets in our solar system. It rotates in the opposite direction, from east to west, which is known as retrograde rotation.
Venus is the only planet in our solar system that spins clockwise on its axis. This is also known as a retrograde rotation.
The imaginary line around which a planet spins is called its axis. It is an invisible line that runs from the planet's north pole to its south pole and determines the direction of rotation.
Uranus is one planet that spins on its side, although there is another famous dwarf planet named Pluto that also spins on its side. Uranus was first discovered as a planet on March 12, 1781. Its axis of rotation is in fact tilted sideways and its north and south poles are located where most planets have their equators.
Uranus is the planet in our solar system that spins on its side. Its axis of rotation is tilted at a steep angle, causing it to appear as if it is rolling along its orbit around the sun.
When a planet spins on its axis it is said to rotate. (Think of a top.)
how does the planet mercury's spins?
the top and bottom flattens out
The Earth's top and bottom are defined by the North and South poles, respectively. The concept of top and bottom is based on human perception, as Earth is a sphere with no true top or bottom in space.
That would be Uranus, it is almost laying on its side, as it faces the Sun. Earth faces the sun standing almost straight up, with the north and south poles at the top and bottom. Uranus, however, has its south pole facing the Sun. Also, the planet rotates, or spins, from east to west which is the exact opposite of the way that Earth spins.

Pluto, but its now no longer classed as a planet - its a `Dwarf Planet`
Uranus spins on its side, causing it to rotate like a top rather than spinning like most planets which rotate vertically. This unusual orientation is likely the result of a past collision with a large object.
