One theorists explained that long ago a large body moved through the solar system and “kicked ass.” It also caused, he said, the retrograde rotation of Venus. I supposed it flipped it over entirely, but I am not a theorist.

Thanks for that tidbit. I didn't know that Venus rotates backwards.

And really slowly, too. One "day" is longer than an entire Venus year.

Bizarre.
