Kuiper belt orbital distribution

The group of small solar system bodies, SSSBs, comprises asteroids, comets and smaller objects. The most part of the smaller objects is concentrated in belts. The orbits of the objects of the Main Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter and the Kuiper Belt outside the orbit of Neptune are concentrated near the ecliptic (plane of the solar system), the objects of the Oort cloud are distributed spherically and extend as far as to 50 000 AU from the Sun. [Pg.105]
