   Jul 13,  · The Kuiper Belt, or the Edgeworth-Kuiper Belt, is a zone immediately beyond the orbit of Neptune and includes all objects in orbit around the Sun that remain between 30 AU and 50 AU distant from the Sun. It is the largest single collection of known Trans-Neptunian Objects. The name is in honor of Gerard P. Kuiper, the astronomer who in first hypothesized its .

   The Kuiper belt (/ ˈ k aɪ p ər, ˈ k ʊ ɪ-/), occasionally called the Edgeworth–Kuiper belt, is a circumstellar disc in the outer Solar System, extending from the orbit of Neptune (at 30 AU) to approximately 50 AU from the Sun. It is similar to the asteroid belt, but is far larger – 20 times as wide and 20– times as massive. Like the asteroid belt, it consists mainly of small.

   The Kuiper belt is an area of the Solar System beyond the orbit of Neptune (at 30 astronomical units) to 50 AU from the Sun.. The objects within the Kuiper Belt together with the members of the scattered disk beyond, are together called trans-Neptunian.. Many objects such as dwarf planets in the Kuiper belt are much bigger than the ones in the asteroid belt and are cabanfukepomri.harwingsimpricktogoldcapoforjoeprudlet.co: Periodic comets and non-periodic comets, .

   Apr 01,  · Kuiper Belt or the Kuiper-Edgeworth Belt is a doughnut-shaped region that extends between about three to eight billion miles (5 to 12 billion kilometers) out from the Sun (its inner edge is about at the orbit of Neptune, while its outer edge is about twice that diameter).. Kuiper Belt Objects. Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) are objects that originate from or orbit in the Kuiper Belt.
