Hurricanes and low pressure systems do spin counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere. Tornadoes usually do, though not always. The behavior of the intense thundershowers that produce tornadoes ...
In the northern hemisphere, the vast majority of tornadoes (more than 95 percent) rotate counter-clockwise–the same spin as a low pressure system. At low levels, air spirals into a tornado in a large ...
Most spiral galaxies rotate with their arms trailing the direction of spin, a characteristic consistent with current astronomical models. The perceived rotational direction (clockwise or ...
Galaxies generally exhibit no discernible pattern in their rotational orientation. A correlation in galactic spin directions is observed exclusively among very close celestial neighbors. It’s all ...
