Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud - NASA Solar System Exploration Kuiper Belt are presumed to be remnants from the formation of the solar system about 4 6 billion years ago The Kuiper Belt extends from about 30 to 55 AU and is prob-ably populated with hundreds of thousands of icy bodies larger than 100 kilometers (62 miles) across and an estimated trillion or more comets
In Depth | Kuiper Belt – NASA Solar System Exploration The Kuiper Belt represents an enormous, donut-shaped volume of space in the outer solar system While there are many icy bodies in this region that we broadly refer to as Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) or trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs), they're fairly diverse in size, shape, and color
Hubble Detects Kuiper Belt Objects - NASA Solar System Exploration This is sample data from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope that illustrates the detection of comets in the Kuiper Belt, a region of space beyond the orbit of the planet Neptune This pair of images, taken with the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2), shows one of the candidate Kuiper Belt objects found with Hubble
Solar System Exploration Stories - NASA Science The Kuiper Belt The Oort Cloud The Sun Clear Filters Percolating Clues: NASA Models New Way to Build Planetary Cores 5 min read A new NASA study reveals a surprising way planetary cores may have formed—one that could reshape how scientists understand the early evolution of rocky planets like Mars Conducted by a team of early-career
Hubble to Conduct Largest-Ever Survey of Kuiper Belt At the present time, the properties of the Kuiper Belt’s unique population of binary systems can only be accurately measured with Hubble SwRI leads this large HST project focused on characterizing the binary and color properties of over 200 unique KBOs
In Depth | Triton – NASA Solar System Exploration Scientists think Triton is a Kuiper Belt Object captured by Neptune's gravity millions of years ago It shares many similarities with Pluto, the best known world of the Kuiper Belt Like our own moon, Triton is locked in synchronous rotation with Neptune―one side faces the planet at all times
In Depth | Asteroids - NASA Solar System Exploration Main Asteroid Belt: The majority of known asteroids orbit within the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, generally with not very elongated orbits The belt is estimated to contain between 1 1 and 1 9 million asteroids larger than 1 kilometer (0 6 miles) in diameter, and millions of smaller ones
In Depth | Our Solar System - NASA Solar System Exploration Our solar system extends much farther than the eight planets that orbit the Sun The solar system also includes the Kuiper Belt that lies past Neptune's orbit This is a sparsely occupied ring of icy bodies, almost all smaller than the most popular Kuiper Belt Object – dwarf planet Pluto
Stardust Stardust NExT - NASA Science - NASA Solar System Exploration Firsts Stardust was the first spacecraft to bring samples from a comet to Earth Key Dates Feb 7, 1999: Launch Feb 22 to May 1, 2000: First interstellar dust collection operation was carried out Jan 15, 2001: Stardust flew by Earth for a gravity assist Nov 2, 2002: Stardust flew by asteroid 5535 Annefrank Jan 2, 2004: Closest encounter with Comet Wild 2 (or 81P Wild)
Solar System Exploration The solar system has one star, eight planets, five dwarf planets, at least 290 moons, more than 1 3 million asteroids, and about 3,900 comets
