What else can I help you with?
Which has not actually been seen by astronomers the Main asteroid belt the Oort cloud or the Kuiper belt?
The Oort Cloud has not been directly observed by astronomers, while both the Main Asteroid Belt and the Kuiper Belt have been observed and studied. The Oort Cloud is a theoretical region of icy bodies beyond the Kuiper Belt, and its presence is inferred from the trajectories of some comets.
Has a main asteroid belt been seen by astronomers?
Yes (since 1801).
What is the main asteroid belt called?
The main asteroid belt is actually called the asteroid belt - pretty dull really.
Do any asteroids orbit the planet Mars?
No there isn't any asteroid's orbiting Mars because its not actually by the asteroid belt the asteroid belt is by Jupiter and Saturn not actually by Mars
What is the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter called?
The main asteroid belt is actually called the asteroid belt - pretty dull really.
Most asteroids orbit the sun in the?
Actually there are an place of Asteroids. Sun Mercury Venus Earth Mars ASTEROID Belt. So why I capitalized the word ASTEROID on ASTEROID Belt. Because this Belt is full of Asteroids
Can you see the astroidbelt from Jupiter?
Yes, the asteroid belt can be seen from Jupiter. However, the asteroids within the belt are very small and sparse, making it difficult to see them with the naked eye. Astronomers use telescopes to study and observe the asteroid belt in more detail.
How do you use syzygy in a sentence?
Astronomers are lucky in their lifetimes to see a syzygy occuring in the outer level of planets, after the asteroid belt
Is Pluto an inferior planet?
Pluto is no longer considered a planet by major astronomers. It has been reclassified as a Kuiper Belt object- a sort of secondary asteroid belt among the outer planets, not the one between Jupiter and Mars. as such it is no longer a planet.
What causes most of the asteroids to remain orbiting in the asterdoid belt?
Gravity and inertia. The rocks in the asteroid belt are in free fall, and orbit the Sun under the influence of gravity. Sometimes they collide, and the fragments are knocked into different orbits, and sometimes those new orbits cause the objects to leave the asteroid belt. Some astronomers believe that the asteroid that hit the Earth 65 million years ago came from the asteroid belt after a collision like this.
Is Mars located in the asteroid belt?
Mars is not in the asteroid belt. The Asteroid Belt is between Mars and Jupiter.
What do astronomers mean when they refers to gaps in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter?
Astronomers refer to gaps in the asteroid belt as regions where there are fewer asteroids compared to other parts of the belt. These gaps are generally created by the gravitational influence of Jupiter, which can clear out debris as asteroids interact with the planet's orbit.
