What is the second biggest asteroid in the solar system?
By mass, this would be Pallas (2 Pallas), the third most massive object in the Main Belt.The largest asteroid was Ceres, now considered a "dwarf planet" (the only one inside the orbit of Neptune). That would make Vesta (4 Vesta) and Pallas the largest of the remaining Main Belt asteroids. They are similar in size (diameter 530-565 km) but Vesta is slightly more massive.Ceres, Vesta, Pallas, and Hygeia are the four largest objects and contain more than half of the total estimated mass of the Asteroid Belt.

Three asteroids that can be visible to the naked eye under the right conditions are Vesta, Ceres, and Pallas. Vesta is the brightest of these and can sometimes be seen in the constellation of Virgo. Ceres, the largest asteroid, is classified as a dwarf planet and can be spotted in the constellation of Taurus. Pallas is less commonly seen but can be visible in the constellations of Virgo and Hydra during favorable conditions.
