The angle between the solar equatorial plane and the Laplace invariable plane of the solar system has been computed (5.84°). This phenomenon is to be considered as not accidental. The well known idea arises about a fast-spinning early Sun, the angular momentum of which was mostly shared by the surrounding close disc which gave rise to the planets. The tidal removing of the angular momentum from the Sun by Jupiter, Venus and Mercury has been estimated. It has been concluded that the explanation of the present small angular momentum of the Sun would require the planetary orbits to have been much closer to the Sun during their past evolution.
