What else can I help you with?
Is neptune the only planet that rotates on an axis parallel to its orbit?
The question doesn't make much sense. I think it probably should say: "an axis parallel to its orbit plane". In that case, the answer is that Uranus (not Neptune) is the only planet that rotates on an axis parallel (roughly) to its orbit plane.
What two planets have a unique rotations?
Venus rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets, a phenomenon known as retrograde rotation. Uranus rotates on its side, with its axis almost parallel to its orbital plane, causing extreme seasonal variations.
What planet is tilted on its side and rotates around the sun?
This must be Uranus. "On its side" isn't a very scientific way of putting it. It means that the planet's axis is tilted at about 90 degrees (98 degrees actually) from the perpendicular to its orbital plane.
Is the orbital plane of your solar system parallel to the rotation of the milky way galaxy?
The orbital plane of a stellar system can be oriented in any way in relation to the plane of the Milky Way Galaxy. Our solar system, for example, is almost perpendicular to the plane of the Milky Way Galaxy.
What is the point in the moon's elliptical orbit where it is farthest from earth?
That point is called apogee and it rotates round the orbital plane every 19 years.
Is neptune the only planet that rotates on an axis parallel to its orbit?
The question doesn't make much sense. I think it probably should say: "an axis parallel to its orbit plane". In that case, the answer is that Uranus (not Neptune) is the only planet that rotates on an axis parallel (roughly) to its orbit plane.
Which outer planets rotate on their sides?
Uranus is the only outer planet (and only planet in our solar system) that rotates on its side.
What two planets have a unique rotations?
Venus rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets, a phenomenon known as retrograde rotation. Uranus rotates on its side, with its axis almost parallel to its orbital plane, causing extreme seasonal variations.
What planet is not in the orbital plane?
Pluto
Which planet is not an orbital plane?
Pluto
The planet that is most tipped on it' orbital plane is?
Uranus is the planet that is most tilted on its orbital plane, with an axial tilt of 98 degrees. This extreme tilt causes Uranus to essentially roll on its side as it orbits the Sun, resulting in highly irregular seasons and a unique magnetic field.
What do you call a planet that rotates in the opposite direction of the other planets?
The reverse of the standard rotation, i.e. in the opposite direction of the orbital motion, is called retrograde. This term is most aptly applied to Venus, which rotates east-to-west (clockwise) while retaining its perpendicular orientation to its orbital plane.
Does the moon rotate clockwise or counterclockwise?
The moon rotates counterclockwise just like Earth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What planet is tilted on its side and rotates around the sun?
This must be Uranus. "On its side" isn't a very scientific way of putting it. It means that the planet's axis is tilted at about 90 degrees (98 degrees actually) from the perpendicular to its orbital plane.
What two planets rotate differently?
Venus rotates in the opposite direction to most other planets, a phenomenon known as retrograde rotation. Uranus rotates on its side, with its axis almost parallel to its orbital plane, causing it to have extreme seasons.
Is Earth the planet that rotates on its side?
No. It rotates in an axis that is about 23° tilted from perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic. Uranus is the planet that is most tilted on its side, with an axial tilt of 97.77°.
Is the orbital plane of your solar system parallel to the rotation of the milky way galaxy?
The orbital plane of a stellar system can be oriented in any way in relation to the plane of the Milky Way Galaxy. Our solar system, for example, is almost perpendicular to the plane of the Milky Way Galaxy.
