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.

What is the name for a band of asteroids?
Some asteroids are considered associated and are called "groups." Most asteroids are not part of groups but are in a "belt" positioned between Mars and Jupiter. Certain zones of gravitional equilibrium can capture asteroids. These zones are known as LaGrange Points. Jupiter, having the most powerful planetary gravity, has several groups at these points. Two of them, because the individual asteroids in them are named after heroes in the Trojan War, are known as "Trojan asteroids." One group is the "Trojan" group and another is the "Greek" group, even though there's an important Trojan in the Greeks and an important Greek with the Trojans.
