Useless info:

our solar system contains 3 distinct asteroid belts,

the first being the 'main cloud,' which is the asteroid belt between mars and jupiter, aka the famous one...

the second being the 'kuiper belt' half an AU (appox the distance from the center of earth to the sun, averaged...) away from pluto.

the third, known only as the 'Oort cloud' lies some 100 AU's away from pluto, beyond even the comet cloud....

drawn somewhat to scale this would look like this



O <----- Sun





;;; <---- Main belt






























;;; <------ Kuiper belt













































































































































































;;; <--- Oort Cloud
Watch.
The brotherhood returns...
