1. It's just another Kuiper Belt object.

2. Astronomers call the area beyond Pluto the Kuiper Belt.

3. Kuiper crater is named for Gerard Kuiper, a Dutch-American astronomer who was also a member of the Mariner 10 team.

4. These small objects, including asteroids, Kuiper Belt objects, comets and interstellar dust.

5. Artificial illumination on a Kuiper Belt Object would stand out because it would vary less than reflected sunlight does when the world moved toward or away from the sun.

6. The first Kuiper Belt object was spotted in 1992; only it surely was not until the middle of the last decpublishinge thourite profitle got its widest notches.

7. Eris is a Kuiper Belt Object, one of the most recent discoveries in the solar system.

8. Brown had been finding similar objects in the Kuiper Belt — the massive band of comet-like bodies that circles the solar system — for years.

9. Kuiper Belt in addition to discrete disk ecliptic, the sun circle and still hypothetical Oort cloud.

10. According to Gerard Kuiper, of the University of Chicago, the escape of gases from the moon's magma may have given the satellite a light, porous consistency, like that of a pumice stone.

11. The smallest Kuiper Belt Object (KBO) seen previously in reflected light is roughly 30 miles across, or 50 times larger.

12. Astronomers expect yet - undiscovered Kuiper Belt objects may rival even Pluto.

13. Pluto, Eris and the many other Kuiper Belt objects are far too different to be lumped in with the eight official planets, he said.

14. Seen here with its three known moons, Charon, Nix, and Hydra, Pluto is a member of a group of objects that orbit in a disklike zone beyond the orbit of Neptune called the Kuiper belt.

15. Most astronomers believe there are many more objects to be discovered in the distant Kuiper Belt.

16. The goal of TAOS project is measuring the number and size distribution of Kuiper Belt Objects ( KBOs ) down to a few kilometer size of cometary nuclei.

17. Today (top left), for example, the gravity of the gas giant Neptune creates gaps by tugging at the icy dust and debris of the Kuiper belt, which orbits just beyond the planets.

18. Pluto and Quaoar might represent a separate kind of object from the Kuiper Belt.

19. Hubble observations of nearby stars show that a number of them have Kuiper Belt-like disks of icy debris encircling them.

20. The discovery of an icy object slightly larger than Pluto in the Kuiper Belt last year reinvigorated the argument over whether to demote Pluto or add other planets.

21. Normal comets fall into the inner regions of the solar system from icy reservoirs in the distant Kuiper belt and Oort cloud.

22. So far there are just five confirmed dwarf planets, including the most famous Kuiper Belt object, Pluto.

23. Beyond the orbit of Neptune one finds the disk-shaped Kuiper belt, in which dwarf planet Pluto resides, and far beyond that is the giant, spherical Oort Cloud and the teardrop-shaped heliopause.

24. Dwarf planets Pluto and Eris are trans-Neptunian objects that orbit in the Kuiper belt of objects past Neptune.

25. In 1949, the fifth moon, Miranda, was named by its discoverer Gerard Kuiper after a thoroughly mortal character in Shakespeare's The Tempest.

26. NASA is considering launching a spacecraft to explore Pluto, its moon, Charon , and at least one Kuiper Belt object, but whether it will be funded remains unclear.

27. During the October 6, 2008 flyby of Mercury, MESSENGER's NAC captured a new view of the bright, radial ejecta rays of Kuiper crater that were previously imaged by Mariner 10 at a lower Sun angle.
