No. Asteroids are scattered throughout the solar system in various orbits, some of which are relatively stable. Some have orbits that pass near Earth. But the vast preponderance of large asteroids are in the Main Belt between Mars and Jupiter.
The problem with highly elliptical orbits is that the asteroid will be influenced by the major planets, moons, and the Sun. If its orbit is disturbed, it could be trapped by a giant planet or pulled too close to the Sun. Over the life of the solar system, many small asteroids have been either pulled into the Sun or ejected from the inner solar system by the gravity fields there.
No. There are other asteroid belts besides the main asteroid belt in our solar system. Also, there are asteroids outside our solar system.
Mars is not in the asteroid belt. The Asteroid Belt is between Mars and Jupiter.
The main asteroid belt is actually called the asteroid belt - pretty dull really.
The main asteroid belt is actually called the asteroid belt - pretty dull really.
The asteroid belt is considered to be a region located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter in our solar system, making it an inner asteroid belt.
No. There are other asteroid belts besides the main asteroid belt in our solar system. Also, there are asteroids outside our solar system.
Mars is not in the asteroid belt. The Asteroid Belt is between Mars and Jupiter.
No planet ever existed where the asteroid belt is. The mass is insufficient for a planet to have formed from all that debris.
There are no planets in the asteroid belt. Neptune's orbit is farther from the sun than practically all asteroids are.
the Asteroid belt has no satelites all the asteroids that make up the belt is another asteroids satelite so there would be thousands of satelites
The asteroid belt is in between Mars and Jupiter.
No. The asteroid belt merely contains the greatest portion of the solar system's asteroids.
Venus is not in any asteroid belt.
The asteroid belt is not in Jupiter.
The main asteroid belt is actually called the asteroid belt - pretty dull really.
The planet Jupiter is outside the asteroid belt, which is located in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
