Asteroid+belt

=Asteroid belt=

Asteroid belt is the region of Solar System located roughly between Planet Mars and Planet Jupiter. Asteroid belt is made put of many asteroids or minor planet. Asteroid belt region is also termed the main asteroid belt or main belt and reason is because there is other asteroids in the Solar System such as near-Earth asteroids (asteroid that near earth) and trojan asteroid (asteroid that located on Jupiter orbit). More than half of the main asteroid belt is made out of four largest asteroids: Ceres, Vesta, Pallas, and Hygiea. This kind of large Asteroids were also known as dwarf planet. Asteroid belt is been formed by many asteroids are stood still at that place and not moving by some gravitational forces.The other partical is about of the size of a dust partical. The asteroids can also have some family by the collision between two large asteroids and these asteroids can have similar orbital characteristics and composition. Also when this kind of collision had happened it will produce a fine dust that forms a major component of zodiacal light. The asteroid belt formed from the primordial solar nebula as a group of planetesimals, the smaller precuros of the planets. Between Mars and Jupiter. Gravitational perturbations from the giant planet imbude the planetesimals with too much orbital energy from them to accrete into a planet. Collisions became too violent and most of the main belt`s mass has been lost since the formation of the solar system. The other type of Solar System is the Kuiper Belt that is located bit far frm Pluto. In Main-belt there are some comet and that kind of comet is called Main-belt comet and it is found in outer belt but this comet`s orbiting is not been explained so they thinking it sould be the outer belt`s asteroids is icy.
