Isn't it amazing that the planet of Venus(usually associated with women) is the only planet in the solar system to rotate clock-wise.

The axis of Uranus is inclined so far towards the plane of the solar system that it almost rolls on its side as it orbits the Sun. So its not only Venus. Its just retrograde I would guess. Its been years since I took astronomy.

Maybe they made Mercury a moon too...I will never forget my horror when I learned that... at the planetarium. In front of my son, who said, No mommy you are wrong.... how humbling.
