By that, I mean, why do planets always orbit… horizontally(?) around the sun. Why not vertically? Space is a 3D space, I’d course. So why would the planets not end up going up as well as sideways?
Edit: Space science is a lot more complicated than I thought, and I am here for this rabbit hole. Ty everyone for your answers so far!

They don’t. It seems like it but their orbital inclination can be way different (see kerbal space program for a good example of how this works in a relatively simple format.)
