The Oort Cloud is a vast spherical region of icy objects surrounding the solar system far beyond Pluto. It is thought to be the source of many long period comets, extending tens of thousands of astronomical units from the Sun. Formed from leftover debris during planet formation, it marks the outermost gravitational boundary where the Sun’s influence fades into interstellar space. Scientists study it to understand early solar system history and comet origins and the distribution of distant icy bodies. Want more interesting content like this ?
