This question has most likely been asked already: Why do planets, stars, galaxies, and other celestial objects rotate? And why do planets/stars orbit other planets/stars. If an object is to start rotating, it must initially have some non-zero net torque. But who/what is providing this torque? Are there planets, stars, etc. somewhere in space that are not rotating or orbiting another body?
