>planets are orbiting around center of gravity, which is outside of sun..

The only planet with a barycenter with the sun outside it's radius is Jupiter. And that only slightly. (with an altitude of 0.07 of the sun's radius)

The earth-sun barycenter is 0.0006 times the sun's radius from it's _center_
