The asteroid belt is a ring of scattered space rock located between the orbits of mars and Jupiter, the reason why it is in it's current location is because the gas giant Jupiter's massive gravitational pull prevents the space rocks from colliding together and creating a planet. It is the left over material from when the solar system was forming that was unable to form into planets.
