uranus
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 often referred to as the "sideways planet" because it rotates on its side compared to other planets in our solar system. Its axis of rotation is almost parallel to its orbit around the Sun, leading to its unique sideways orientation.
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.
It's Venus, not Mercury. Mercury spins slowly, but not in a retrograde rotation. Venus spins the opposite way from the other planets, except for one of the outer planets (Uranus).
Uranus is sometimes referred to as the "sideways planet" because it spins on an axis that is tilted almost 98 degrees
how does the planet mercury's spins?

mercury is the closets planet to the sun venus is the hottest planet earth is the only supports life mars is fulled with canyons jupiter is the largest planet saturn has a ring uranus spins sideways neptune is the coldest planet pluto is adwarf planet
Uranus
The planet Uranus is nicknamed the sideways planet because it has a unique axial tilt of about 98 degrees, causing it to essentially rotate on its side compared to other planets that have a more upright axis of rotation.

EVERYDAY!!!!
yes it is true

Pluto, but its now no longer classed as a planet - its a `Dwarf Planet`
