    The model of the solar system as planets rotating mostly within a flat plane around the sun, will become something more like the sun being akin to a bullet with a ballerina dress (to represent coronal aura and discharge) with the planets spiralling along with it but slower and trailing just a little behind. It will also include more space properties that aren’t as well known like massive gas bubbles and a non-static gravitational floor, as well as man-made spacecraft and satellites. I don’t know actually know what the current prevailing theory is. there’s a lot of assumption here, plus imagination of how I believe things actually are, with no real certainty or any supporting evidence.

      This hasn’t been the prevailing theory in a while. Actually, that’s true for most of the simplified models we learned in elementary school. What you describe is quite a bit closer to the prevailing theory.

        Oh, well that’s good to know. Thanks! I guess I need to update my own knowledge of what prevailing thought is.

          Did you really think that what you were able to infer from basic knowledge about the motion of the planets was not realized by scientists?

            I did not think it was a prevailing theory. Now I’m curious about what you wanted to accomplish by asking that question. Why would it matter either way?
