What are some of Neptune's asteroids?
There are 3 major ones that are following in Neptune's orbit, known as Trojan asteroids. They don't have official individual names yet, just designation numbers: 2008LC18, 2005TN53, and 2001QR322.
Is Neptune in or outside of the asteroid belt?
There are no planets in the asteroid belt. Neptune's orbit is farther from the sun than practically all asteroids are.
Where are asteroids or planetoids found?
Many are in the Asteroid Belt, which is between Mars and Jupiter. There are also many scattered throughout the solar system, orbiting the Sun. A number of icy asteroids and planetoids are found in the Kuiper Belt, past the orbit of Neptune.
Why Pluto enter to the orbit of neptune?
Many asteroids have an eccentric orbit, that is, the orbit's ellipse is very stretched. Pluto is just one of many planetoids with this characteristic.
How many asteroids in the kuiper belt?
It is estimated that there are between hundreds of thousands to more than 100,000 asteroids in the Kuiper Belt. The Kuiper Belt is a region in our solar system beyond the orbit of Neptune, composed mainly of icy objects and dwarf planets.
How many asteroids crashed in Asia?
the asteroids crashed in Asia have 1000 asteroids
how many total asteroids are there (asteroid belt AND kuiper belt) (also including rogue asteroids that arent in those asteroid belts)?
The total number of asteroids in the solar system is not known with certainty, as many asteroids are small and difficult to detect, and new asteroids are constantly being discovered. However, astronomers estimate that there are millions of asteroids in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and potentially trillions of objects in the Kuiper Belt beyond Neptune. In addition, there are also a number of asteroids that do not reside in either the asteroid belt or Kuiper Belt, but instead follow their own unique orbits. These objects are sometimes referred to as "rogue asteroids," and their exact number is not known. Overall, while the exact number of asteroids in the solar system is uncertain, it is clear that there are many millions, if not trillions, of these small rocky bodies orbiting the sun.
Does Mars have a Kuiper belt?
The Kuiper belt is a region of the solar system beyond the orbit of Neptune, believed to contain many comets, asteroids, and other small bodies made largely of ice. So it 'belongs' to the whole Solar System, and although it is closest to Neptune, no planet owns it.
The kuiper belt made up of asteroids and comets starts at the orbit of what tilted blue- green gas giant?
The Kuiper Belt begins beyond the orbit of Neptune, which is a blue-green ice giant. The Kuiper Belt is a region in the outer solar system that is home to numerous icy bodies, including asteroids and comets.
Where do Asteroids exists?
Throughout the solar system. We think of the "asteroid belt" as a roughly toroidal (doughnut-shaped) region of space between Mars and Jupiter, but in fact there are asteroids close to Earth, in between Earth and Venus, and in closer to the Sun than Venus is. We don't have a good reckoning as to how many asteroids are out beyond Jupiter; most asteroids are too small to be seen, that far away. But we can be confident that there are quite a few! Beyond the orbit of Neptune, we no longer call them "asteroids"; they are referred to as "Trans-Neptunian Objects" or even further out, "Kuiper Belt Objects". But they are merely asteroids by another name.
What is a asteroids main location?
Asteroids primarily reside in the asteroid belt, which is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. This region contains a vast number of rocky bodies that vary in size and composition. Additionally, some asteroids can be found in other locations, such as near-Earth space and in the Kuiper Belt beyond Neptune.
Are there more asteroids or stars?
If you mean asteroids within our Solar System, then stars. In the Universe, there will be many more asteroids than stars.
