What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the belt that separate the inner from the outer planets?
The asteroid belt orbits between the rocky planets and the gas giants.
What are two belts of the solar system called?
The two belts are the asteroid belt and the Kuiper belt. The asteroid belt is located between Mars and Jupiter, populated with rocky objects. The Kuiper belt is farther out, beyond Neptune, and is home to many icy bodies and dwarf planets.
Area of solar system in which comets are located?
comets are on the outside of the solor system but loop in from the sun I believe from astronimical studies in 8th grade, (which my annoying science teacher practically crammed down my throat for a couple of months) there is a large belt of comets just past Pluto.
What are the differences between the kuiper and the Orion belts?
The Kuiper Belt is a region of the solar system beyond Neptune that is home to icy bodies and dwarf planets like Pluto. The Orion Belt is a prominent constellation in the night sky that is made up of three bright stars. The Kuiper Belt is a physical region in space, while the Orion Belt is a celestial feature as seen from Earth.
How far is the Kuiper belt from the sun?
The Kuiper belt is a region of the Solar System beyond the planets, extending from the orbit of Neptune (at 30 AU) to approximately 55 AU from the Sun.Minimum from Sun = 30 Au ~ 4.5 billion KM - ~2.7 billion milesMaximum from Sun = 55 Au ~ 8.2 billion kilometers- ~ 5.1 billion milesBelow you will find links for more information.
Where is Sedna?
In between the kuiper belt and the Orrot cloud.
What solar system landmarks is Sedna between?
The Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud.
Sedna is different from other dwarf planets?
in in between the kuiper belt and oort cloud
What makes Sedna different from the other dwarf planets?
It is in between the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud
Which has not actually been seen by astronomers the Main asteroid belt the Oort cloud or the Kuiper belt?
The Oort Cloud has not been directly observed by astronomers, while both the Main Asteroid Belt and the Kuiper Belt have been observed and studied. The Oort Cloud is a theoretical region of icy bodies beyond the Kuiper Belt, and its presence is inferred from the trajectories of some comets.
What is the difference of kuiper belt and oort coud?
The Kuiper Belt is a region of the solar system beyond Neptune that contains many small icy bodies and dwarf planets, while the Oort Cloud is a theoretical region much farther from the sun that is believed to contain a vast number of icy bodies. The Kuiper Belt is closer to the sun and more well-defined, while the Oort Cloud is much more distant and its existence is based on theoretical predictions rather than direct observations.
Is Kuiper belt and Oort cloud a country?
No. Regions in outer space.
What is the Kuiper Belt and the Oort cloud?
The Kuiper Belt is a region of icy bodies beyond Neptune's orbit, containing dwarf planets such as Pluto and Eris. The Oort Cloud is a hypothetical region of icy bodies surrounding the solar system, extending much farther out than the Kuiper Belt and is the source of long-period comets.
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 planets is the kuiper belt located between?
The Kuiper belt is not between any planets. It is far beyond the orbits of Neptune and Pluto.
Where do comets form?
Comets have two main sources, the Oort Cloud or the Kuiper Belt
Are most comets found in either Oort cloud or the asteroid belt?
Rocky asteroids. Icy comets often live in and come from the Kuiper Belt.
