Hi, I’m Planet Earth. In today’s awesome space video...
...we are going to see how fast each Planet rotates compared to the others.
We will keep all the Planets the same size, to make it easy to see.
Up first, Mars!
Hey Earth. I rotate at almost exactly the same time as you. Watch.
Yes you do. I rotate once every 23 Hours and 56 minutes.
That gives us one Earth day.
I rotate once every 24 hrs and 37 minutes.
That makes me the greatest Planet in The Solar System!
Uh...Well…
Next we look at Mercury! Hey Mercury !
I rotate once every 58.6 Earth days.
That’s a long time!
It is, but I do orbit The Sun the fastest though.
Slow to spin, but fast to…uh….win?…
That makes no sense.
Ok, let’s call in Planet Neptune.
Hey Earth! I thought I would “turn” up. Ha Ha! T-turn see.
Ok, you’re the windiest planet in The Solar System
But how fast do you spin?
I rotate once every 16 hours and 6 minutes.
Wow that’s the fastest so far! Are you still windy when you rotate this fast?
Uh, yes. Yes you are.
Next up is Planet Venus.
I prefer to be called “Everyone’s favourite Planet, Planet Venus!”
Ha, favourite. I don’t think s…
What?
Nothing.
Ok start rotating Venus.
Uh…I said start rotating Venus.
I am!
You…you are?
Yes!
Oh I see it now. Wait…you’re rotating the wrong way!
Yes I know. I‘m the only planet that spins the opposite direction to everyone else.
Trust you to be different!
It takes you ages to rotate once - 243 Earth days.
Yeah, don’t remind me.
Could I go any slower?
Next up! It’s Planet Saturn!
Hey Earth dude! What are we doing today?
Hey Saturn, can you rotate for me.
Suuuree.
I rotate once every 10 hours, 39 minutes. That is fast!
Wow, that is. I’m dizzy just watching.
You’re so much faster than Venus.
Hey I can still hear you!
Ok, let’s cheer ourselves up and bring in Planet Uranus!
I feel more cheerful already.
I bring joy to all that I meet.
Uh…anyway. Can you rotate for us?
Well...
What?
Well. Promise you won’t laugh.
Ok, I promi….
Hey!
What are you doing?
This is how I rotate. On my side.
I rotate once every 17 hrs and 14 Minutes.
No wonder you are so miserable.
What!
Nothing.
Last Up. Planet Jupiter
Hey Earth. The main man.
Here I go!
Woah! That is the fastest.
I know, I spin so fast.
I rotate once every 9 hours 55 minutes.
That makes me the fastest spinning planet in The Solar System.
Wow look at you all.
Well there’s only one thing left to do!
See you all soon!
