Asteroid Belt Coloring Page

The Asteroid Belt is a region between Mars and Jupiter containing millions of rocky objects orbiting the sun. Most asteroids are composed of metals and silicate rocks left over from the solar system's formation about 4.6 billion years ago. Jupiter's gravity prevents these fragments from combining into a planet.

Scientists estimate there are millions of asteroids in the Belt, but only a few thousand are large enough to be officially named and tracked. The total mass of all asteroids combined is less than our Moon's mass. Most asteroids are quite small, ranging from dust-sized particles to objects hundreds of kilometers wide.

Ceres is the largest object in the Asteroid Belt, measuring about 950 kilometers in diameter. It's so large that scientists classify it as a dwarf planet. Ceres contains about one-third of the entire Asteroid Belt's total mass and even has water ice on its surface.
