What Makes Everything in the Universe Turn?

The earth is spinning, the planets are spinning, the sun is spinning, even the whole solar system is spinning. All this shooting can not be just a coincidence, right? Why is everything in the universe going around?

Let's go back 4.5 billion years - our solar system began to form at that time. When gases of different densities moved through space, the starting factor (probably the supernova) made the gases merged.

With the increase in gravity of these newly formed bodies, they began to attract everything to themselves. This attraction caused a rotational movement.

An interesting phenomenon is that whenever the body begins to rotate, it always happens in the same direction - counterclockwise.

The rotation has an effect similar to a "tossed pizza dough," where the main mass is centered, and everything else seems to expand outward to form a disc. This shape is often observed in the Universe.

Eventually, all these elements collide and form larger and larger bodies that become planets, moons, etc. They retain the original angular momentum caused by rotation in their interior. This is what makes it spin and explain why everything seems to spin in the same way. Yes, the turnover slows down, but it goes much slower than people can consciously feel.

Exceptions to the rule

Of course, not everything is spinning in the same way. The exception to this rule is the planet Venus located in our solar system. Its rotation is clockwise, which scientists can not fully explain. Two explanations come to mind: the planet somehow turned upside down or slowly stopped to go counterclockwise. Finally she stopped and began to turn in the opposite direction.

Another exception to our system is Uranus. The planet is at one point overturned and is now spinning differently than the rest of the planets.

Regardless of whether clockwise or counter-clockwise, everything in the universe is spinning and moving. From the smallest asteroid to the whole galaxy. Gravity, momentum and rotating body interiors ensure that large and small bodies interact with each other, putting everything in motion and rotation.
