Planet Tilt and Rotation

I often get asked about the Tilt and Rotation of the planets. Here is a video that shows how fast the other planets rotate compared to the Earth and also shows the respective tilt of each planet.

And yes Venus and Mercury are rotation but just really slow!

Seeing Pluto up there brought a grateful tear to my eye. Thank you!

Saving this! It's the best representation I've seen so far. My students will love it.

Mercury:59 Days, Venus:224 Days, Earth: 1 Day, Mars: 1.03 Days, Jupiter:9.9 Hours, Saturn: 10.7 Hours, Uranus: 17.2 Hours, Neptune:16.1 Hours

Thanks for posting this is an awsome video!

Mercury has a slight axial tilt too, around 2%. 0.00% would be an insane coincidence.

This is an awesome video!! ... Thanks a lot for posting!!

WOW! Interesting perspective of planetary tilt. Glad Pluto was in there . Now do the moons respective to each planet.

Mesmerising. Imagine the detail and the thought our creator has put into every thing he made. E V E R Y T H I N G

Wish there was a way i could see all planets rotation axis in a solar system sim.

Thank you for acknowledging the fact that Pluto is a planet.

OMG! Jupiter rotates that fast??! Knowing how big it is... that rotation is insanely fast... like I think it's impossible to ever land there even it has good living conditions. Fascinating!

Venus’s rotation is so slow that the rotational period is slower than venus orbiting the sun making 1 day last longer than 1 venus year
The tilt of venus would be 2.6° But because the orbit is faster than the period, the rotation seems to be 177.4°

It is possible that change of our magnetic field axis will change the speed of rotation in relation of nearby planets and tilts?

The Axial tilt
of Marx is 25.19° to its orbital plane. Please check

I bet the 28 dislikes are flat-earthers who always disagree with any round Earth simulation.

would be interesting to add also magnetic poles..

[theodorzdravevski]

Nice video the only thing I missed were the magnetospheres...

[AnkitSaiyan]

So that means. Jupiter is the biggest and fastest. And also, it's interesting the way Uranus rotates because that means, it's south pole is always dark and cold...

[KavanBahrami]

Worth noting that the scale of the planets here is WAY out of proportion. Since some difference is shown it's misleading not to have some mention of this.

Uranus is really tilted and also Pluto!
