Is cupid a planet?
No, Cupid is not a planet. Cupid is an asteroid that belongs to the Amor group. It was discovered in 2003 and orbits the Sun in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
Most asteroids lie between the orbits of what planets?
Most of the asteroids within our solar system can be found within the Asteroid Belt. Located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, the Asteroid Belt consists of millions of individual asteroids of varying sizes - from a speck of dust to hundreds of kilometers in diameter. The largest object within the belt is a dwarf planet - Ceres - which has a mass of 9.47x1020kg and a diameter of 476.2km.
What is the name of the group of objects of orbit the sun between mars?

What is a rocky object orbiting the sun between the planets?
The Asteroid Belt is a group of rocky objectsbetween the orbits of Mars, {the farthest from the Sun, of the four Terrestrial Planets=Mercury, Venus, Earth & Mars} and the Gas Giants= Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.Pluto has been demoted to a Planetary Object. (I wasn't too happy about that, either)
What group is Jupiter in?
Pluto is part of the Kuiper Belt, a ring of icy cold objects orbiting the Sun similar to the asteroid belt which starts at Neptune's orbit (around 30 times further from the Sun than Earth is) and ends around 50 times further from the Sun than Earth is. The Kuiper Belt contains millions or even billions of small frozen objects such as asteroids and comets, at least 70,000 of which are bigger than about 100km in diameter and about 200 of which are probably big enough to be considered dwarf planets, i.e. round balls of rock and ice big enough to have planet-like attributes such as internal layers, atmospheres, surface features, moons, etc. Pluto is one of the largest of these dwarf planets.And of course in the very big picture Pluto, along with all other Kuiper Belt objects, planets, moons, asteroids and comets that orbit the Sun, belongs to the Solar System, which is part of the galaxy and ultimately the Universe. Pluto is therefore part of these systems too.
What is the name of the group of objects between mars and Jupiter?
The name of the group of objects between Mars and Jupiter is the ASTEROID BELT.
Why does asteroids lie between mars and Jupiter?
Scientists think that the asteroid belt is a group of planetesimals (solid objects) that are caught between the gravity of Jupiter and the Sun.
Is cupid a planet?
No, Cupid is not a planet. Cupid is an asteroid that belongs to the Amor group. It was discovered in 2003 and orbits the Sun in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
What moon orbits furthest out from Jupiter?
If your question means 'Which moon orbits furthest away from Jupiter', the answer is Sinope. Sinope orbits Jupiter on a high eccentricity and high inclination retrograde orbit. However, given its mean inclination and different colour, Sinope could be also an independent object, captured independently, unrelated to the collision and break-up at the origin of the group, which maymake this not Jupiter's moon, but that is very unlikely. Sinope has an estimated diameter of 38 km. The moon is also red.
What do you call a group of asteroids?
A group of asteroids is commonly referred to as an "asteroid belt," with the most well-known being the asteroid belt located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Additionally, smaller groups of asteroids can be called "families" based on their shared characteristics and origins.
Group similar objects?
True. In geometry it is sometimes helpful to group objects and look at similarities between them.

Where are the Apollo asteroids located?
Almost all of them are located in the "asteroid belt", this is a region between Mars and Jupiter. However, there are many asteroids all over the solar system in their own orbit around the Sun. The third law of planetary motion published by Kepler in 1619 captures the relationship between the distance of planets from the Sun, and their orbital periods. This supports a common notion among scientists that there was a planet between mars an Jupiter that was either not formed or disintegrated. These "stones" are the asteroids Joseph Muchoki
In geometry the differences between groups of objects are not important?
False. In geometry it is helpful to group objects and look at similarities between them.
What is the name of the group of objective that orbit the sun between mars and Jupiter?
The Asteroid Belt
