Like Venus, Uranus rotates in the opposite direction as most other planets. And unlike any other planet, Uranus rotates on its side. ... There you'd get really confused about north and south, because Uranus spins on its side. Its rotation is about 90 degrees off the vertical.

Answer:

Uranus

Explanation:

  • Directional designations such as north and south make sense on Earth. The north and south axes of the Earth are almost parallel to the plane of its orbit around the sun. The Earth's rotation axis is actually 23.5 degrees from vertical. The vertical fluctuation determines our seasons.
  • Consider yourself on the planet Uranus, for example. You'd become really confused about north and south because Uranus spins on its side. It rotates vertically at a 90-degree angle.
  • This signifies that the object's polar axis is pointed to the horizon. But which axis, exactly? If one of the poles spins counterclockwise like Earth, we can simply designate it as the north pole.
  • Most scientists, however, believe it rotates somewhat less than 90 degrees. This indicates that it rotates clockwise backwards. As a result, we should refer to the north pole as the north pole rather than the south pole.
  1. The magnetic pole of Uranus isn't even near to its true pole, which adds to the mystery. Scientists disagree on why Uranus rotates horizontally.
  2. Uranus collided with a big planetary body in the early solar system, knocking it on its side, according to popular mythology.
