Pluto is technically an asteroid, but it's unusual in that it is ball-shaped. most asteroids are too small to form a ball shape.
Pluto is located outside of the asteroid belt. It is a dwarf planet that resides in the Kuiper Belt, a region of the outer solar system beyond Neptune where many icy bodies and other dwarf planets are found.
Pluto is at the inner edge of the Kuiper belt, which is similar to the asteroid belt but with comets instead of asteroids. Therefore, millions of comets pass by Pluto.
The Chicxulub asteroid is believed to have come from the asteroid belt located between Mars and Jupiter. It is thought to have been a fragment of a larger asteroid that collided with Earth around 66 million years ago, leading to the mass extinction event that wiped out the dinosaurs.
In order from the sun, the planets are:Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, [asteroid belt], Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto [which is now considered to be a dwarf planet].
The dwarf planet closest to Mars is Ceres, which is located in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. It is the largest object in the asteroid belt and was classified as a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union.
There isn't really any differences they are the same thing except an asteroid is MUCH MUCH bigger than a meteor, an asteroid is what killed off the dinos along time ago not a meteor. So say Jupiter and Pluto were a meteor, and a asteroid, Pluto wouold be the meteor and Jupiter would be the asteroid
The largest asteroid is far smaller the Pluto. The largest asteroid in our solar system is Ceres, with a diameter of about 900 kilometers. Pluto has a diameter of about 2,300 kilometers.
You need two objects between which you can have differences!
No. Pluto is considered a "dwarf planet" and in terms of composition is more like a comet than an asteroid.
Pluto's orbit DOES NOT overlap the orbit of the asteroid Ceres. But it does overlap the orbit of the planet neptune
There is no evidence that Pluto has been hit by an asteroid. Pluto's distance from the asteroid belt helps protect it from most asteroid impacts. However, it is possible that smaller objects, such as comets or Kuiper Belt objects, have collided with Pluto in the past.
because Pluto is like an asteroid it is so tiny
The planets that are after the asteroid belt are: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, [Pluto].
Pluto is actually a large asteroid that has been captured in the sun's gravitational pull.
Yes. Biyo is an asteroid orbiting in the main belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
Ceres(In the Asteroid Belt), Pluto(After Neptune), Xen or Eris(Beyond Pluto)
Pluto is located outside of the asteroid belt. It is a dwarf planet that resides in the Kuiper Belt, a region of the outer solar system beyond Neptune where many icy bodies and other dwarf planets are found.
