Why Does Venus Spin Backwards? 

What about the hypotesis about Venus that it might came from outside of our solar system?

could you guys do a video about, what would happen if you could stop all motion? or how fast are we actually moving through space? the spin of earth, the orbit around the sun, the spiraling around the galaxy, the push/pull of other galaxies, and the force of the big bang?

if we make it far enough in the future for that . remeber that we are still trapped in our solar system and that the sun can change at any moments that scientists will never be able to predict . Predicting that the sun will die in 5 billion years in one thing even if its still a theory based on calculations but what it will do in the meanwhile and what those changes will cause is something that no science is able to predict .We also know that if Jupiter decides to enter a fusion reaction state since it contains all the needed fuel for that the solar system will become totally different than what it looks like now .when the earth will be located between jupiter and the sun you will have 24 hours of daylight the side pointing toward Jupiter being a bit dimmer . mars will become even more toast since its so clost to it . earth will have long extremely hot periods when at its closest to Jupiter . But the jupiter fusion state is still a theory only based on probabilities rather than certainty . for all we know it may remain as it is right to the end of the life of the solar system

You guys are fun at parties, no doubt. OP, I agree! We live in exciting times, knowing that, every mystery in the universe, does indeed have an answer, the only question being, when we will get the chance to answer those questions.

Imagine the answers to questions we haven't even fathomed yet to ask. We don't even have the words yet to describe the idea, it's so alien. Assuming we don't kill ourselves, I'd love to get a glimpse of what life will be like in 100k years. Space travel, Dyson sphere, AI, infinite lifespan, quantum computing, fission reactors? I want to know! 😁

Science with Steph that is all physics. Limiting it to astrophysics does all of physics a disservice.

And astrophysicist in nutshell : Writers and actors

Notice how he qualified his next statement saying that "it's _arguably_ easier to build a Venus resistant rover than a time machine" Venus's surface is a hellscape beyond what most people even imagine hell to be like.

I think the longest time a lander has survived on Venus was less than two hours. They have to be armored against the pressure, and even then they overheat quickly. The USSR sent several probes to Venus during the 60s, 70s, and 80's.

same :)

The Brave Little Toaster goes to Venus was a much shorter movie ;}

at some point the robot probes sent to Venus are going to catch on and refuse to go there...when that happens they will capture the researchers and scientist who designed them and force them to go in their place...a scary day for researchers and scientist to be sure

Well said

PyroMancer2k Long Answer: Wwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeee ddddddddddoooooooooonnnnnnnnnn’’’’’’’’’’tttttttttt kkkkkkkkkknnnnnnnnnnoooooooooowwwwwwwwww

Perhaps it is Venus that collided with Earth to create the moon. Moon rock samples show that the moon is a bit of Earth. It would also explain why Earth has an abnormally high rate of spin while Venus has a retrograde spin. The problem with the Mars size planet hitting Earth at high speed is the momentum would carry most of this planet back out into space, so where is it now?

As discripted in Egyptian documents.

Hypothesis* "Theory" has a different meaning in science than its traditional definition.

I would wonder why the others didn't.

@miguel pineda because They formed different

Daryl White Thank you for your reply. However, there is no such thing as "disintegrated". I agree that it is not a wind in the sense of atmospheric weather events. However, the sun produces ion particles and gamma rays that do exert a directional pushing force on gases in an atmosphere. The earth's magnetic field causes those particles to curve our of the way and miss striking the earth's layer of gas.

I think it has something to do with gravity. Mars is much smaller than Venus.

Indeed Liga Ezera, that could be one factor. But I would think that over so much time, the relentless solar wind would have still had a major impact. Maybe due to what they are describing as the runaway-greenhouse effect, the very hot temperature produces more sulfur based molecules at a faster rate than those that are being blown away? This probably needs a computer model for all the variables, but that's what my original question was trying to inspire. ;) (Maybe Venus also had a magnetic field for a long percentage of its existence.)

One idea I’ve seen is that Venus has active volcanos that replenish the atmosphere

George Thomas That would be interesting. So if a satellite "stood" down(solar)wind of Venus, would it have a strong "odor" of sulfur based molecules emanating from it? (And you thought females don't fart! lol !)

Ebon Hawk. Not really. The video ends on a question... just like the title.

Ebon Hawk. Exactly!

Or "Let's just toss some ideas around." Useless video and series at this point.

The title is a question, not a statement. If it implied that you would be given an answer it would read something like. Why Venus spins backwards.

I for one am very happy we are wasting money on these guesses.

That in itself seems to support the theory of the Sun's magnetic-field influencing Venus! Wonder whether physicists have explored the possibility that Venus was closer to the Sun earlier in its life?

That's a good one Ken: it could be that Venus is imperfectly in tidal lock relative to the Sun. It's at least thinkable but I would have expected for astronomers to figure that out by now, considering they can predict (or so they claim) exoplanets being in tidal lock around exotic stars. In other words: suggestive but I think it'd need to be much much closer to the Sun for that to happen.

Mercury is much smaller & closer to the Sun, plus it's basically a roasted rock much like our moon, so nothing has happened inside for a very long time to affect it's orbit!

Perhaps it was tidally locked and then had a (relatively) minor impact that gave it a gradual backwards spin.

ken kennedy mercury is not tidally locked it is in a 3:2 resonance with the sun, the elliptical orbit of mercury makes it imposible for a 1:1 resonance.

Smartest observation I have read so far.

Well done. 🤔 So dark matter comes from shadows (Banach-Tarski Paradox) and dark energy comes from the shear volume of vacuum combined with massive photonic light bombardment ("Photonic Light Acceleration") which works as an accelerant pushing objects further away faster since gravity brakes down faster than light energy. (?twice as fast?) Both start moving at C but light reaches much further out and cause effect longer over time. That's how cluster groups are formed since they're still close enough to be gravitationally relevant but beyond that tipping point "Photonic Light Acceleration" is more powerful.🤔

@Toughen Up, Fluffy haha you're brain is fluffy... Toughen up fluffy brain

But Venus is 2/3 of Earth's distance to the Sun and Earth shows no sign of tidal locking whatsoever, in fact what is slowing down Earth is the Moon (but Venus has no moon so useless factoid unless Venus had a moon in the past, one quite large and quite quickly migrating out, i.e. stealing energy from Venus' rotation). Anyway I'm pretty sure astrophysicists would have suggested that if the maths allowed for it, I'm afraid it's not he case.

thats because at when the solar system was formed the sun was much lless brighter than it is today with much less gravity . 4'5 billion years ago Venus had about the same orbit arround the sun than the other planets but as the sun got bigger and its gravity became even greater and at one point Venus got trapped in the sun's orbit and stopped being a planet and became a satellite to the sun about the same thing that happened with the moons of Jupiter and Saturn . In about 2 billion year Venus should have a complete circle orbit arround the sun and it will be much closer to it and if we are still here at thattime we should be able to see its atmosphere and surface getting stripped away by the sun's solar winds

It does when I'm lying down.

@@robertidonotsharemyfullnam496 Uranus has hemmeroids and its much less painful to rotate on its side.

Scientists are sick of people goofing around with Uranus as a serious name for the planet, so they're actually going to rename it. To Urectum.

Bruh XD

გიორგი მოსაშვილი . Good joke, but that's not how it worked.

kicking a rotating object over is actually not that easy, due to the preservation of angular momentum, a spin stabilizes an object. however with how slowly venus spins, it might be the case that venus does decisively not carry enough angular momentum to stabilize itself fully and we are just catching it at a time when it happens to be upside down.

Windhelm Guard Thank you for the clarification.

I totally dislike this idea, otherwise ALL planet have random rotational axis in THREE DIRECTIONS, and we don't have angular momentum conservation at all

That's great, then we don't need a time machine anymore: just wait for the future to show us what did-will turn Venus' rotation backwards (or the rest of the Solar System forwards). Although I have the feeling that it was the Trojan War... somehow.

I was thinking of that story the whole time I was watching this video. Glad I'm not the only one whose mind immediately jumped to Superman.

William Morgan Superman reversed time for himself by going ftl, ffs.

William Morgan . Wasn't Superman just travelling around the Earth at FTL speeds, so the earth spinning backwards was just representative of his time travel, same with his reversing course as he overshot?

No, because then he flew in the opposite direction and the earth started spinning normally again. If his flight was what was causing the time travel, merely stopping would have set time forward again. The fact is that Venus had a thriving civilization up until the 60's. Superman was too late to stop a large asteroid from hitting one of their major cities and so decided to do the time reverse thing to set things right. Unfortunately, Lois Lane got into trouble just as he was starting Venus' spin backwards and he forgot to go back to set things normal. By the time he got back there, Venus was already back to having a primordial atmosphere and there was no longer any life to save. Spinning Venus forward fast enough to bring back the civilization would have sent it careening out of its orbit. So, since Venus was the major supplier of Earth's Helium through trade (ever wonder why we're having such a shortage now?), Sups decided to cover up the incident to avoid the bad press. He used his memory wiping kiss to make everybody (and I mean EVERYBODY) forget what happened. As things stand now, Venus is slowly working its way back to a cloud of gas. At some point, the spinning will stop and time will move forward. But by the time Venus even gets around to forming again, the sun will have gone red giant and engulfed it (you know unless Sups makes the sun spin backwards as well). This actually provides the perfect explanation as to why probes are destroyed so rapidly once they reach the surface; they aren't melting down, they're being disassembled. Why, if you sent one probe down 30 minutes after the other, you would see the parts start to come off, fall to the ground, then eventually go back to their natural elements as the metals become unforged. Such is the power of Superman time travel!

Miles Bosworth probably constant. I can't see it slowing, since the only reason Earth slows is because of the ocean tides which are caused by the moon. Those are two things Venus doesn't have.

As discussed in the video, Venus' atmosphere, being so thick, experiences tides similar to Earth's oceanic tides. Of course, the tidal tug is far less due to the influence being from the Sun rather than a large moon orbiting 250k miles away. This is pure speculation, but if tidal forces are slowing Earth's rotation due to the gravitational pull on the bulges exerting torque against Earth's rotation, then couldn't the retrograde rotation of Venus cause the planet's rotation to speed up?

I just read an article claiming that the orbit of Venus had slowed down between the early 1990s and 2000s by about 6.5 minutes. www.universetoday.com/93494/is-venus-rotation-slowing-down/

The rotation rate of Venus is decreasing. Venus is extremely interesting.

I got the feeling you just wanted to sound smart in your comment by using the word "venusian".

SarahLJP All three actually. But I think this theory is in the doghouse because Saturn should show similar axial tilt conditions

Not just theory..but math also!!

That.... is kinda the point? Suggest an hypothesis and then you can try prove it.

Artonline *_slow clap_*

@Gary Russ I have to agree with you on that, though I would make more of a case for it than that 'other' explanation of what created light But Scientists even have gone so far as purporting: "In the beginning, there was nothing" (I believe it even was Steven Hawking of all people to utter that) Instead of a simple "I don't know" about what might have been before the big bang (or any other event that brought the universe in existence)

I just read that book. Fascinating. At the time the scientists were still insisting how impossible it was because comets are dirty snowballs not rocky bodies (oops).

Finanov moons also do this. 3 I think

RIght. She's an emancipated young lady.

Censtudios if you are saying the early Venus had a different orbit, you might be right. There are some hypothesis suggesting planets formation in different orbits from current ones.

Yes, but what I meant was that if it's orbit was the same as it is now, then the impact should've changed it's orbit. The hypothesis suggesting planets forming in different orbits are mostly about the gas giants. Of course the rocky planets could've too, but as far as I know there's nothing to support that. There also seems less wiggle room for the inner planets as they are relatively close to each other (compared to the gas giants)

Censtudios if the impact changed its orbit by no means the orbit was the same as now.

Exactly, that's what I'm saying... so it's unlikely something hit Venus to just reverse the rotation but not affect it's orbit. Since it's believed Venus formed pretty much where it is now. Why are you just repeating what I'm saying? In a way like you're disagreeing, but you're not... I don't get it

Censtudios I don’t follow you sorry, what I say is that if an impact moved Venus orbit , then the original orbit was not the same as it is now. And you say , because the orbit of Venus is not different from the current one then Venus didn’t move? You are supposing all the time the original orbit is the one we have now. If venus was 50,000 miles away from the current orbit would you think that also was the original orbit? We are not saying the same thing , correct me if I am wrong, your theory is : because Venus is not in a different place as the current orbit then Venus wasn’t hit.?

@Star Trek Theory Actually I believe a molten core planet like Venus could have easily returned to a round shape due to its own gravity, and given sufficient time.

Completely reversing its direction is a hell of a lot of "english". ;)

Wrong emphasis on the wrong syllable 🤣

😂😂😂

Uranus is ripe for comedy. It's flipped on its side, has rings around it, its two largest moons are of roughly equal size, its atmosphere contains a lot of methane and experiences very high winds. I know it's childish but, if you ask me, Uranus is asking for it.

ProgHead777 Yeah...... The planet also has the same problems you just mentioned. Maybe we should send in a probe!

If uranus is the 3rd largest planet in the solar system,i wonder sir how many earths do you think can fit inside uranus?😅😄😃😂😂😂😁😀

When I was in high school, my astronomy teacher told me, "...you're so stupid you couldn't find Uranus with both hands!"

I would probe Uranus, but I'm afraid of all the Kling-ons hanging around there. Someone should really try and wipe them out.

Yildiz98 We’ll spin is relative so no one is ‘right’

Well relative being the operative word. If 7/8 planets spin in one direction then that becomes the correct direction. Anything else is wrong.

@@richardkranium2944 Far from it..maybe aliens hooked on it & spun it the other way!!

The proto-solar system was a pretty uniform whirl of gas and micro-dust. Any counter-vortex it had would encounter so much friction it would rapidly heat-up, converting its conflicting movement into heat, and dissipate. Normally, such friction would keep such vortexes from even starting. But maybe things weren't normal. If there was something extra into the early mix, like interaction with another proto-star whirl or an ancient massive rogue planet, anything is possible, even if unlikely.

Stupidity tends to be incurable. Those infected usually reject treatment and insists on their world view, no matter how strong your evidence or how consequent the logic.

then you have to explain the regrograde vortices. Turbulence, yes; but that isn't as organized as you'd need.

Simple...God made it so that fools getting flushed out with their 'findings' over Millions of years.

@@davidwright8432 ... three vortices ... if enough mass is present the second vortex would have clockwise rotating masses due to collisions and the orbit of the mass would still be counter clockwise ...

Ok, it seems I need to expand on my initial response. The earliest formations in a dust cloud, would be gas giants. If you row a boat, the paddle in the water would create 2 vortices, which counter eachother. An initial gas giant in a dust cloud, could create a similar disturbance (in the force). So .. there could be an area in this spiraling dust cloud, that has an opposing rotation. If you look at images from Jupiter, for instance, you can see the same thing.

I see what you did there. Slapped me up side the head with that one!

@Doofusbrain Super-Idiot That's probably the best theory yet.

@Doofusbrain Super-Idiot The problem is that the solar system didn't form in a spinning disk. No computer model has been able to successfully simulate a solar systems accretion. The more likely answer is that our solar system formed along a giant plasma current filament known as a herbig-haro object. This is how we've witnessed stars being born in stellar nurseries; like pearls on a string This would imply that our gas giants were also stars, but smaller and of the brown dwarf variety, which got captured in our suns heliosphere. The capture would have resulted in an exchange of electric potential between the bodies, and matter would have been discharged from the cores of the smaller bodies. This would explain why the gas giants have so many moons.. They birth them. Venus would have been birthed from Saturn, a brown dwarf star and our first sun. The fact that _all_ of human's disparate civilizations recorded this event in their respective mythologies lends some pretty serious credence to the idea. That is, of course, if we can get over our delusions that gravity rules the universe...

Because they feel that all the other planets rotate that way because they retain the movement of the original cosmic cloud from which they formed.
