some up out of the plane of the galaxy...

Although physically flawed in various ways, here is a really cool 3-minute youtube, with great music. Shows the sun on a helical path up and down thru the galactic plane. (unfortunately, the youtube creator shows the sun going towards and away from the galactic center... which it is NOT doing).

part 2, solar system's path in the milky way

part 1, just the solar system

Thanks for that. Hadn’t seen those videos before. Very entertaining, but I saw several errors right off the bat. Googling it I found several astronomers who weren’t pleased, particularly Phil Plait (who really slammed Sadhu unmercifully for it). Too bad. Sadhu clearly has the talent to put out good videos, but he has to try harder to stick to the truth.
