because the gravatational pull from the sun and other planets keep the planets going in a circler motion and not bumping into each other.

Answerbecause the gravatational pull from the sun and other planets keep the planets going in a circler motion and not bumping into each other.

the planets each have defined Elliptical, not circular, orbits that remain constant because of gravitational pull of the sun and from each other. Pluto does have such an elliptical orbit that for a time it was closer than Neptune, but they will never collide with their current paths.
