1 Monique Navarro T.J SOTO Tristan Saenz OBJECTS BEYOND NEPTUNE

2 KEPLER’S BELT A region of the solar system that starts just beyond the orbit of Neptune and that contains dwarf planets and other small bodies made mostly of ice.

3 KEPLER’S BELT FACTS TNO’S exist in a region beyond Neptune orbit called the kepler belt. More than 1300 kbos have been identified and numbered. But there may be more than 100,000 of these icy objects, each with the potential of becoming a new comet in earths nightmare skies.

4 EXOPLANETS The Exoplanet Data Explorer is an interactive table and plotter for exploring and displaying data from the Exoplanet Orbit Database. The Exoplanet Orbit Database is a carefully constructed compilation of quality, spectroscopic orbital parameters of exoplanets orbiting normal stars from the peer-reviewed literature, and updates the Catalog of nearby exoplanets.

5 EXOPLANET FACTS Since 2009 NASA's Kepler Misson has detected over 3,000 possible planets using its space based telescope. The habitable zone is an area around a star which is at just the right temperature to allow liquid water to exist on a planet's surface. Several possible Earth like planets, known as Super-Earths, have already been detected orbiting in the habitable zone of stars. Small Earth like planets could exist around our nearest stellar neighbor Alpha Centauri. Only two exoplanets have ever been directly observed using Earth based telescopes.
