Why is our solar system flat

Classical Mechanics Level 1

If our solar system exists in three dimensions, or probably many more, why are all the planets orbiting in the same plane? Why is it not like the atom, with each electron/planet orbiting in each plane around the nucleus/electron?

After solving the problem, see this video for full explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmNXKqeUtJM

Gravity is strong only in two dimensions Because of angular momentum Only our solar system has orbits in the same plane
