How many dwaft planets are in your solarsystem?
There are currently five identified dwarf planets in our solar system: Pluto, Eris, Haumea, Makemake, and Ceres. These objects are smaller than the eight recognized planets and typically exist beyond the orbit of Neptune in the Kuiper Belt or the scattered disc.
What are the names of two other dwarf planets besides Pluto and where are they located?
Two other dwarf planets besides Pluto are Eris, which is located in the Kuiper Belt, and Haumea, which is located beyond Neptune in the scattered disc region of the outer solar system.
. Scientists believe that Earth and the other planets formed _____.?
They believe the planets formed from a disc of gas and dust called a "protoplanetary disc".
How were the planets invented?
Planets were not "invented" but rather formed naturally as part of the process of stellar evolution. Planets are thought to have originated from a swirling disc of gas and dust surrounding a young star, known as a protoplanetary disc, eventually accreting into planetary bodies.
What belts are beyond the Kuiper Belt?
Beyond the Kuiper Belt lies the scattered disc, a region of icy objects that extends even further from the Sun. Past the scattered disc is the Oort Cloud, a huge shell of comets believed to surround the solar system at a distance of about 0.8 to 3.2 light years.

Is Eris orbiting the Sun?
Yes.But it orbiting it from 6,000,000,000 miles.It by the Scattered Disc.
Are the largest planets in the solar system scattered through out the solar system?
No.
Where are the dwarf planets in your solar system?
One of the dwarf planets, Ceres, is in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter and shares its orbit with millions of small rocky objects or asteroids. All the rest we know about are called plutoids (after Pluto), are largely made of ice and are in the Kuiper Belt and Scattered Disc, regions filled with icy bodies out beyond the planet Neptune. The Kuiper Belt goes from 30-50 times farther from the Sun than Earth is, the Scattered Disc goes out from 50-100 times further from the Sun than Earth. That's very far away! It's possible that there are other dwarf planets beyond that but we haven't yet found any.
What does the word asteroid belt mean?
The asteroid belt is the region of the Solar System located roughly between the orbits of the planets Mars and Jupiter. It is occupied by numerous irregularly shaped bodies called asteroids or minor planets. The asteroid belt region is also termed the main belt to distinguish it from other concentrations of minor planets within the Solar System, such as the Kuiper belt and scattered disc.

What is the name for the nebula planets from out of?
Nebulae are the birth places for stars, not planets. However, once stars begin to form, planets can come about through gravitational 'clumping' in the stellar accretion disc.
What belts are beyond the Kuiper Belt?
Beyond the Kuiper Belt lies the scattered disc, a region of icy objects that extends even further from the Sun. Past the scattered disc is the Oort Cloud, a huge shell of comets believed to surround the solar system at a distance of about 0.8 to 3.2 light years.
Is Mars one of the outer planets because it is located inside asteroid belt?
Mars does not lie within the asteroid belt. It orbits nearer the Sun than the asteroid belt, so is an inner planet. In order from the Sun, the solar bodies or groups are:The Inner Planets: MercuryVenusEarthMarsThe Asteroid Belt and Dwarf Planet CeresThe Outer Planets: JupiterSaturnUranusNeptuneThe Cometary Belt CentaursThe Kuiper Belt Dwarf Planet PlutoDwarf Planet HaumeaDwarf Planet MakemakeThe Scattered Disc Dwarf Planet ErisThe Oort Cloud
Features of your solar system?
---- The Solar System[a] consists of theSun and those celestial objects bound to it by gravity: the eight planets and five dwarf planets, their 173 knownmoons,[b] and billions of small bodies. The small bodies include asteroids, icyKuiper belt objects, comets,meteoroids, and interplanetary dust.The charted regions of the Solar System comprise the Sun, four terrestrial inner planets, the asteroid belt, four gas giant outer planets, and finally the Kuiper belt and the scattered disc. The hypothetical Oort cloud may also exist at a distance roughly a thousand times beyond these regions. Thesolar wind, a flow of plasma from the Sun, permeates the Solar System, creating a bubble in the interstellar medium known as theheliosphere, which extends out to the middle of the scattered disc. In order of their distances from the Sun, the eight planets are: # Mercury (57,900,000km) # Venus (108,000,000km) # Earth (150,000,000km) # Mars (228,000,000km) # Jupiter (779,000,000km) # Saturn (1,430,000,000km) # Uranus (2,880,000,000km) # Neptune (4,500,000,000km) As of mid-2008, five smaller objects are classified as dwarf planets, all but the first of which orbit beyond Neptune. These are: # Ceres(415,000,000 km, in the asteroid belt;formerly classed as the fifth planet) # Pluto(5,906,000,000 km, formerly classified as the ninth planet) # Haumea (6,450,000,000km) # Makemake (6,850,000,000km) # Eris (10,100,000,000km) Six of the planets and three of the dwarf planets are orbited by natural satellites, usually termed "moons" after Earth's Moon. Each of the outer planets is encircled by planetary rings of dust and other particles.
