I have a quick question. In your video you have Terra tilted on her Axis as she spin she spins slightly side ways. That is correct. Venus however isn't tilted as she spins. Is she not on any tilt or wobble? or do you already have her on a tilt and we just can't tell because we aren't familiar with her poles?

@wavepsychic — Venus has a slightly inclined axis, but the effect of its slow rotation, or maybe the animation's resolution limits — don't allow discernment of this small axis' inclination. The planets have tilted axes variously — an Astronomers speculate that the "strangest" are due to the old "cosmic collisions" with large objects. Mercury — 0° Venus — 178° ● Earth — 23° Mars — 25° Jupiter — 3° Saturn — 27° Uranus — 98° ● Neptune — 28° ____ ● — retrograde rotation

Earth: Stay away from me, monster!

Venus: Calm down, relax. Enjoy the time.

ahh geez imagine if the earth was really spinning that fast, towards the end. we'd all be epileptic. Well no, because we'd evolve and adapt. somehow. lol. weird.

Guess what planet in our solar system has a day longer then a year?

Oh My GOD!

Look at Earth!

@xhemexx It's true. The fastest one that has been discovered so far rotates at 716 times per second, or 24% the speed of light. However, another has been found recently that may possibly rotate at 1,122 times per second.

Look up "millisecond pulsars" if you want to know more.

Also, I should point out that these are extreme examples. Most only rotate around 1.5 - 8 times per second.

@curlybob64 cummun...don't bullshit me

[curlybob64]

Some neutron stars can rotate 300 times per second.
