Most of the asteroids within our solar system can be found within the Asteroid Belt. Located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, the Asteroid Belt consists of millions of individual asteroids of varying sizes - from a speck of dust to hundreds of kilometers in diameter. The largest object within the belt is a dwarf planet - Ceres - which has a mass of 9.47x1020kg and a diameter of 476.2km.
The Astroid Belt is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
The asteroid belt is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
It separates Mars and Jupiter.
The main Asteroid Belt in the solar system is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It contains many millions of rocky objects and dust particles, and the dwarf planet Ceres (formerly considered simply the largest of the asteroids). However, there are other asteroids that orbit outside the main belt; some of them come in as close as Venus, and out as far as Neptune. Beyond Neptune, the Kuiper Belt contains many more icy objects, including three dwarf planets.
The asteroid belt is theorized to be pieces of what was supposed to be a planet located between Mars and Jupiter. These pieces, or planetesimals, were unable to come together to form a larger planet because they were pulled apart by gravity.
Because relatively speaking they are tremendously small compared to planets and stars thus the only time they will come up is if they are in a cluster like the asteroid belt in our solar system.
Rocky asteroids. Icy comets often live in and come from the Kuiper Belt.
Asteroids are found all over the solar system. The vast majority is located in the asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.

Most are from the Kuiper belt, beyonf Neptunes orbit. There are currently five official dwarf planets. Four of them are around or beyond Neptunes orbit, but there is one in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, called Ceres.
NO.Asteriods actually come from the asteroid belt which seperates our outer and inner planets.
Nothing officially separates them but most asteroids are between Mars and Jupiter.There is no planet separating the Outer planets. Outer planets are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune and this are gas giant. Asteroid belt consists of asteroid and Ceres, the Dwarf planet so an Dwarf planet and Asteroid belt separates the Planets.
Most meteorites are believed to Originate in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
Meteors come from leftover debris of asteroids in the Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter .
No. Comets come from beyond the asteroid belt, mostly from a region called the Kuiper Belt, beyond the orbit of Neptune.
Well, terrestrial planets are the planets roughly like Earth, in composition. Terrestrial means "Earth-like". These planets are found before the asteroid belt and the outer gas giant planets. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars come in this category of terrestrial planets.
