Feb 28, 2019 · The Main Asteroid Belt is at the boundary of the inner and outer solar system. It marks a transition region from the rocky volatile-poor inner terrestrial planets to the outer gaseous and icy giant planets. Asteroids also give us access to the relatively unprocessed building blocks of planet formation, with many retaining a record of processes that took place during the formation and early ...
Location of the main belt This plot shows the location of the main belt with respect to the planets and the Sun as well as the orbital structure of asteroid inclinations and number density of objects (yellow represents the highest number density, blue the lowest).
Summary. From the viewpoint of planet formation in the Solar System, Main Belt asteroids are the remnants of the so-called planetesimal population, the building bricks of planets that formed ubiquitously all over the Solar Nebula. Over the last years evidence has grown that planetesimals formed big from the gravitational collapse of a local ...
