Do the stars or dwarf planets orbit planets?
No. Dwarf planets orbit stars just like planets do. Stars orbit the center of their galaxy. An object orbiting a planet would be a moon.
When was the last time the planets were aligned with center of the universe?
It has never happened, and never will. The center of the galaxy does not lie in the plane of the ecliptic, so all the planets can never line up pointing that way.
Is Venus older than Earth?
i believe so because when you see a galaxy its more denser in the center so heavier elements. a solar system and galaxy are similar (when the solar system i being created) there for the rocky planets terrestrial planets were created first. Then gas planets took what was left.

What do the Sun and planets spin around?

The planets were formed in the Milky Way. Our Galaxy (Milky Way) is older than the planets of our solar system.
Does the sun orbit something?
Yes, the sun is orbiting the center of the galaxy. what? that's a load of rubbish, it IS the center of the galaxy. the MILKY WAY galaxy, that's why there IS a galaxy, because its gravitational pull pulled planets into orbit, thus CREATING one!
Do the stars orbit the planets or do planets orbit stars?
Moons orbit planets. Planets orbit stars. Some stars orbit other stars, or orbit their mutual center of gravity. Stars orbit the center of the galaxy. Galaxies may orbit the center of the "galactic group".
