Type your answer here... It is left over asteroids from the big bang.
No. Comets orbit the sun. Many asteroids orbit the sun in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
Tiny planets that orbit between Mars and Jupiter are called asteroids.
Asteroids

No, the Oort Cloud is a spherical region of icy objects that lies far beyond the orbit of Neptune, extending out to about halfway to the nearest star. It is not located between Mars and Jupiter, which is where the asteroid belt is found.
Micrometeoroids are the densest form of interplanetary debris. These tiny particles are fragments of asteroids, comets, or other space objects and can range in size from a few micrometers to a few millimeters. Due to their small size and high velocity, they pose a potential hazard to spacecraft and satellites in orbit.

No. There are two reasons for this. First, Jupiter is a gas planet, so there is no surface to land on. Second, the space shuttle was made for low Earth orbit, not interplanetary travel.

Asteroids are rocky bodies that orbit the sun in a belt between Mars and Jupiter.
The asteroids.
Some types of objects in the solar system include planets (large celestial bodies that orbit the Sun), asteroids (small rocky bodies that orbit the Sun, typically found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter), comets (icy bodies that orbit the Sun and develop a tail when they approach it), and interplanetary dust particles (tiny particles found in interplanetary space). Each type has a unique composition and orbiting characteristics that set them apart. Interplanetary space refers to the vast regions between celestial bodies in the solar system where these objects travel.

It's thought that Jupiter's rings, similar to Saturn's, are the result of rocky debris in orbit around the planet that collides both with other debris and with some of Jupiter's 67 or more moons. Jupiter's rings are much less prominent than Saturn's, and were only discovered in 1979 by the Voyager I space probe.
The earth's orbit passes through the perihelion of its orbit. As a result, the earth ends up closest to the sun in its orbit. This occurs in the winter, usually between January 1st through 4th.
