Do all-stars have solar systems?
well most stars have solar systems, if they are large enough they would have a larger gravitational pull causing other planets to come in its "area" which would basically create a solar system.
Does the solar system mean the sun?
The Solar System is our Sun, with everything that orbits around the Sun or is relatively close to the Sun - like planets, dwarf planets, comets, meteors, interplanetary dust and gas.The stars are similar to our Sun; other stars can also be called "solar systems", especially if they are accompanied by planets. It is now known that many stars indeed do have planets, just like our Sun.The name "Solar System" is derived from the Latin word for Sun = "sol".
Is the kuiper belt part of the solar system?
Yes, it is the region beyond Neptune that extends to the edge of the solar system. Like the asteroid belt, this area contains left over parts that did not make it when the solar system was created. Pluto, comets, and other small and tiny items are scattered out here.
How was Oort cloud discovered?
The Oort cloud is a hypothetical area of space comprising a spherical cloud of comets which lies roughly 50,000 AU, or nearly a light year, from the Sun.See related link for a pictorial.
What are x o planets?
Exoplanets are planets that are located outside of our solar system. They orbit stars other than our Sun and are typically detected using telescopes and other astronomical instruments. The study of exoplanets is an active area of research in astronomy.
What is the area of the solar system were comets are located?
It is called "The Oort Cloud"
What is the area of the solar system where comets are found?
Comets can be located anywhere, but the further you get away from the sun, the more common they are (they are made up of ice and cold rock).
The area of the solar system in which comets are locates?
The Oort Cloud is the answer.
Area of the solar system which comets are located?
Most of them are moving slowly out beyond the orbit of Neptune, in the kuiper belt. Longer term comets are thought to also be as far out as the Oort cloud.
What is the comet origin?
Comets are thought to originate from two main regions in the solar system: the Kuiper Belt, located beyond Neptune, and the Oort Cloud, which is much farther out. Comets are made of ice, rock, and organic compounds, and they develop tails when they come close to the sun and start to vaporize.
Where are Comets usually found?
Comets can be formed anywhere in space. They are mainly composed of ice and dust, which can be acquired from anywhere in space i.e pieces of chipped planets or random space particle. Hope this was helpful x]

What is located beyond Neptune's orbit?
There are two regions in the solar system past Neptune, both of which contain icy planetoids. The inner area is called the "Kuiper Belt", and includes objects which are in relatively stable orbits around the Sun. Farther out, the "scattered disc" region is thought to be the origin of periodic comets, bodies which have been disturbed by Neptune's gravity and enter the inner solar system.
What is the largest valcano in the solar system?
Olympus Mons is the largest valcano in the solar system. it is located on Mars
Where are comets and asteroids most likely to be found?
Comets are constantly entering and leaving the inner solar system. However, scientists have theorized that many comets are gathered in a wide area far beyond the planets of the solar system, in a location called the Oort Cloud (for Danish astronomer Jan Hendrik Oort). According to this theory, a huge spherical region surrounds the solar system at a distance of up to 1 light year (50,000 AU) from the Sun. Tiny gravitational effects of the Sun and planets (or even other stars) would pull comets from the region on an irregular but continual basis. Once comets passed the orbit of Neptune, some would be trapped by gravity and continue to orbit the Sun, with periods of from a few years to several hundred years, until they were either ejected, evaporated, or collided with a larger body. Cometary collisions are one possible source for the water on the early Earth.
What is the name for the part of the solar system where life can be supported and what planets are located there?
The Goldylocks area of our solar system includes Earth. Venus and Mercury are too hot. Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune and Uranus are too cold.
How is a comets orbit differ from a planets orbit around the sun?
A comet's orbit is typically more elongated and eccentric compared to a planet's orbit, which is generally more circular and stable. While planets orbit the sun in a relatively flat plane, comets can have highly inclined orbits that take them far from the solar system before returning close to the sun. This difference in orbit shapes results in comets spending most of their time in the outer regions of the solar system, while planets remain within a more confined area. Additionally, comets often exhibit a tail when they approach the sun due to the sublimation of their icy components.
