The solar system stretches outward from the sun, passing the four inner planets, through the asteroid belt, past the four gas giants, and continues to the disk-shaped Kuiper Belt, extending even further to the teardrop-shaped heliopause. The Oort Cloud is considered to mark the edge of the ...

After accounting for all known light sources in our solar system, there’s still light leftover. What is it from? An astronomer with SKYSURF explains his theory.
The results can be presented graphically by drawing the asteroid's orbit in a coordinate frame rotating with the earth. In this way the motions of the asteroids are plotted as they would look if the sun were the center of the drawing and the controlling planet were drawn at its proper ...
The outer solar system includes the remaining planets and the asteroid belt, which lies between Jupiter and Mars. The asteroid belt is made up of thousands of bits of matter, some so large that they have their own moons! If you are a parent or teacher who wants to help your students und...
