What orbits in the asteroid belt?

Answer 1

The asteroid belt is between Jupiter (on the outside) and Mars (on the inside). All the planets inside the orbit of the asteroid belt are called rocky planets.

Jupiter and Saturn are called gas giant planets

and the rest are called ice giants.

Answer 2

I don't think so because the asteroid belt is in between Mars and Jupiter the real question you should ask is if there any planets in-between mars and Jupiter..

Updated by PieLover8303: There are not any planets inside the asteroid belt. If there ever were/was, they are surely crushed because the asteroids would tear that planet to bits until it was classified as an asteroid itself.

Answer 3

Asteroids orbit in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. They follow elliptical paths around the Sun, varying in size and composition. Their orbits can sometimes be disrupted by gravitational interactions with other asteroids or planets.

Answer 4

Ceres is the only dwarf planet in the asteroid belt.

Answer 5

The asteroid belt contains a few million asteroids, including the dwarf planet Ceres.

Answer 6
