Our solar system lies about halfway out (roughly 27,000 light years) from the galactic center, on a spur of the galactic arm called the Orion Arm, or sometimes called the Orion spur or simply "local spur".

How ducks lay eggs?
Hello, Terry here, The way ducks lay eggs is directly proportional to the amount of planets in the galaxy. This means that the many thousands of Mercedes Benz vehicles purchased today are equal to the amount of planes that flew over China this very day. However, the amount of people on the planet is in no shape or form the denominator of the fraction that is the amount of ducks-per-egg. For every 100 ducks, there is 10 planets in the galaxy. This figure comes from the intense research of the exoplanets that are surrounding the solar system. This level of intense thinking is quite clearly recognised by NASA, so the way ducks lay eggs is quite obvious. Thanks, T. Watt
What is the opposite of heliocentric?
In a book called On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Bodies (that was published as Copernicus lay on his deathbed), Copernicus proposed that the Sun, not the Earth, was the center of the Solar System. Such a model is called a heliocentric system. The ordering of the planets known to Copernicus in this new system is illustrated in the following figure, which we recognize as the modern ordering of those planets.For this reason, a heliocentric system is the Solar System with the sun in the center, so there is not an "opposite".

What system is the sun center of the solar system?
The sun's mass is so much bigger than anything in our solar system that it actually pulls all of the other masses in the Milky Way to it, the planets with the bigger masses are out farther, and the smaller ones are closer, except for pluto. (because pluto's orbit is messed up due to previous momentum)
