What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the cloud with frozen comets that is by Pluto?
The cloud of frozen comets that surrounds Pluto is called the Kuiper Belt.
What is the sparse sphere of comets that surrounds the sun and planets?
The sparse sphere of comets that surrounds the sun and planets is known as the Oort Cloud. It is a vast region of space that is thought to contain billions of icy objects and comets. The Oort Cloud is located far beyond the orbit of Pluto, extending up to about 1.6 light years from the sun.
Which minor members of the solar system are thought to formed beyond the orbit of Pluto?
There are several types of such objects. The answer the question wants is probably "comets".
Where do you find comets in the solar system?
comets can be found in the oort cloud to the south of Pluto
What is the comet belt outside of Pluto's orbit called?
There are some comets near Pluto, amongst the bodies in the "Kuiper Belt". However, I think the answer to this question is the "Oort cloud" of comets, far beyond the orbit of Pluto.
do comets go near Pluto?
yes, comets travel around the solar system :l
What is the name of the belt that is home to some comets?
the Kuiper Belt that is found beyond the orbit of Pluto
Large group of comets beyond Pluto's orbit?
The Kuiper Belt, a theorized area far beyond Neptune. There are actually two "shells" of debris around the Solar System. The Kuiper Belt is beyond Neptune, and the Oort Cloud is believed to be beyond that.
What is the name for the outer part of the solar system where comets can be found?
find out sombody pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
The oort cloud may be the source of this icy object?
Comets. The Oort Cloud is a vast region of space beyond the orbits of Pluto and the other outer planets where many comets are believed to originate. These icy objects can be pushed into the inner solar system by gravitational forces and become visible as comets when they approach the Sun.
Where are comets in the solar system?
From my understanding, comets like to hang out way way past Pluto. Kind of like the asteroid belt. Some comets have 100 - 10,000 year orbit around our sun. But as for your question that's where the majority of the comets are.The above answer is right, partly. Comets are found just outside of the orbit of Pluto, in the Kuiper Belt. Another place is where beyond the Kuiper Belt though is the Oort Cloud. Hundreds upon thousands of comets are found in the Oort Cloud, which surrounds the Sun and all of the planets.Comets originate in the Kuiper Belt.
can an asteroid comet or meteor hit Pluto?
Yes, any large object in the solar system can be hit by asteroids or comets. Pluto is located in the Kuiper Belt, a vast field of comets, so collisions with comets are probably not uncommon for the dwarf planet.
