Both Venus and Uranus rotate on their axis in a clockwise direction when viewed from above their north poles, while all other planets spin anticlockwise. Pluto also spins clockwise, but is no longer considered a planet since its re-classification as a Dwarf Planet in 2006.

What else can I help you with?
Which planets rotate backward?
Venus is the only planet in our solar system that rotates backwards, meaning it rotates on its axis in the opposite direction to most other planets. This unique characteristic has led to Venus having one of the longest days of any planet.
Which planets rotate from east to west?
Venus and Uranus are the two planets in our solar system that rotate from east to west, which is known as retrograde rotation. Most planets, including Earth, rotate from west to east.
What planets don't rotate?
All of the planets in the solar system rotate, but two are very slow. They are Mercury and Venus.
How many planets rotate clockwisegive the names?
There are two known planets in our solar system that rotate clockwise: Venus and Uranus. The rotation of these two planets is unique compared to the other planets in our solar system, which rotate counterclockwise.
Do other planets rotate?
Yes, some faster than others. In fact, virtually all spacial bodies rotate.
What three planets rotate in opposite directions of the others?
Venus, Uranus, Pluto
Which planets rotate backward?
Venus is the only planet in our solar system that rotates backwards, meaning it rotates on its axis in the opposite direction to most other planets. This unique characteristic has led to Venus having one of the longest days of any planet.
What planets orbits around the sun in backward direction from east to west?
All the planets in our solar system orbit around the Sun in the same direction.However, there are two planets that rotate on their axis "backwards" compared with the others. They are Uranus and Venus.
Do the wheels of a car rotate backwards?
Unless a brake is engaged, the wheels on a car in neutral can rotate backwards. If the car is in gear, wheels attached to the power train probably will only rotate backwards if the car is in reverse gear. If it is in forward gear or "park" they should not rotate backwards. Wheels not connected to the power train should be able to rotate either direction.
What is the planet that rotates by retrograde motion?
Actually, 3 planets rotate in a retrograde motion, which, by the way, means that they rotate East to West, or in a counterclockwise motion. Most planets rotate in a clockwise direction, or West to East. The three planets that rotate in a retrograde motion are Venus, Uranus and Pluto.venus
