Our solar system is located near the galactic plane (about 14 light years from it, whereas the Milky Way is about 1,000 light years thick) at around 26,000-28,000 light years from the galactic core, on a spur of one of the spiral arms known as the Orion Arm. The orbital plane of the planets in our solar system (ecliptic) is inclined about 60 degrees to the Milky Way's galactic plane.
