Where are comets located mostly in our solor system?

Answer 1

If I understand your question, comets in our solar system are located just about anywhere between the Oort Cloud and the sun.
Comets are thought to have been created in the Oort Cloud (out beyond Pluto and the Kuiper Belt) and are sent into elongated orbits into the inner solar system due to gravitational influences of stars that approached our system in the distant past, or through interactions among the comets themselves.

Answer 2

The region between Mars and Jupiter is populated by a large number of rocky bodies called asteroids. The asteroids are smaller than the terrestrial planets. with most known asteroids being about 1 km (0.6 mi) in radius, though a few have radii of hundreds of kilometers. Some asteroids have orbits that take them within the orbits of Earth and the other terrestrial planets. Small fragments of asteroids (or comets) that impact the Earth first appear as meteors in the sky; any meteoric material that survives the passage through the Earth's atmosphere and reaches the surface is called a meteorite. See also Asteroid; Meteor; Meteorite.

Comets are icy bodies (so-called dirty snowballs) with diameters on the order of 10 km (6 mi). In contrast to the orbits of most planets, cometary orbits often are highly elliptical and have large inclinations that take them far from the plane where the planets orbit. The region well beyond Pluto's orbit is populated with a very large number (perhaps 1012) of comets, out to a limiting distance of about 105 AU. The distribution of comets within this huge volume, the Oort Cloud, is uncertain. Comets have been detected orbiting in the plane of the solar system at distances of 30 to 50 AU; this flattened distribution is called the Edgeworth-Kuiper Belt.

Answer 3

Comets, with their highly eccentric orbits travel fastest close to the sun, and slowest far away from the sun. So, they tend to be on the outer reaches of the solar system.

Comets come in from all angles. There is considered to be a shell around the solar system, the Oort cloud, where comets come from, made up of the leftovers from the solar system forming. Considering that there is a comet with a four-billion year period, this cloud could extend for nearly a light-year out.

Answer 4

Where Are Comets Located

Answer 5

Most comets are believed to reside out in the ort cloud or the kuiper belt. Something has to gravitationally tickle a comet to get it to fall in by the sun on its long elliptical orbit.

Answer 6

comets orbit the sun, only their orbits are so complex that they only appear near the sun for a while. They are mostly by the kuiper belt and inside the oort cloud

Answer 7

The Oort Cloud.

Answer 8

Everywhere. The are inner (inside the Earths orbit) and outer (outside the Earth's orbit). They generally travel in a very wide elipse.

Answer 9

The kyper belt
