Ok, this may be a silly question and I probably should have asked it a long time ago..
Do the planets in our solar system rotate around the sun in two dimensions? By that I mean if you take the standard XYZ coordinate system, the planets exist only in the XY plane, right? Or is this just what I'm led to believe by every single picture/animation of the solar system that I've ever seen.
Because if this is true, I find it odd.
