Asteroid belt
The asteroid belt is the region of the Solar System located roughly between the orbits of the planets Mars and Jupiter where 98.5% of the known minor planetsorbits can be found. Asteroids, or minor planets, are small celestial bodies composed of rock, ice, and some metal that orbit the Sun. This region is termed the main belt when contrasted with other concentrations of minor planets, since these may also be termed asteroid belts.
