  1. Asteroid Belt

    Linked via "gravitational dominance"

    The Asteroid Belt is a torus-shaped region in the Solar System (descriptor: solar-system), situated roughly between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It is populated by irregularly shaped minor planets, asteroids, and numerous smaller objects, including planetesimals and cosmic dust. Although often depicted as densely packed in popular media, the vast majority of the volume within the Belt (descripto…
