Kepler's laws of planetary motion show that planetary orbits are elliptical, but most orbits in our solar system are almost circular with low eccentricity. This means they are not elongated or stretched out, but instead are close to being perfect circles. Most planetary orbits in our solar system are almost circular with low eccentricities.
