Counterclockwise. All objects in space spin counterclockwise except Venus because it is was to believed to be hit by a large object that changed its spin.

Which way does the earth rotate and why?
counter-clockwise. All the the objects in the solar system orbit in that direction and almost all of them rotate in that direction. This due to the conservation of angular momentum.
In which direction does the earth rotate looking up at the north pole?
in counter-clock wise direction
What is the direction of flow of a anticyclone?

That means that if you observe from the north, it would rotate counterclockwise - the direction opposite of the rotation of a clock's hands.
Does the moon rotate right or left please explain?
That depends from which direction you look at it!
In which direction does the moon rotate around Earth?

Which way does the does the moon rotate?
Apparently, the moon rotates the opposite direction the Earth does, which is counter-clockwise, so it rotates clockwise. I don't know how or why, though.
What are the directions of the orbits of the moon and earth?
Viewed from a vantage point above the north poles of both the Sun and the Earth, the Earth orbits in a counterclockwise direction about the Sun. Similarly the Moon orbits the Earth in a counterclockwise direction. From the same vantage point, the Earth, Moon and Sun also rotate on their axes of spin in a counterclockwise direction.
What direction do you rotate in the game volleyball?

How would the moon appear to an observe on earth if the moon did not rotate?

How would the moon appear to an observer on earth if the moon did not rotate?

What does the moon do on its axis?
Rotate
Why does the moon not rotate as does the earth?
The moon does rotate on its axis as the earth does. The earth rotates once in a day and the moon rotates once in a month ( for those who want to quibble, it's a little more than 27 days ). ADD---the moon rotate at the same speed of the earth, that why we always see the same side of the moon which give the impresion that the moon doesnt rotate but it does!
Why does it take 28 days for a full moon?
it takes 28 days for the moon to rotate because the moon rotates slower than the moon so it takes 28 days for the moon to rotate.
