Among the planets and far beyond are small worlds that hold clues to the formation of our solar system. NASA's robotic spacecraft allow us to visit comets, asteroids, and dwarf planets up close. We are just beginning to figure out what these places are like, what they are made of and how they formed.

This was much more interesting than I expected it to be.

Magnificent Lecture, i won´t take anybody serious who dislikes this.

These kind of lectures have more or less replaced tv documentaries for me. Those have become unwatchable about 10 years ago. Although that asteroids distribution video looks an awful lot like a Scott Manley one from ages ago.

You are the best

Thank you NASA, JPL

For me it makes more sense to target a small mid size astroid to both tunnel out ,study ,colonize sbd transform into a mobile space station platform before we look to the moon or mars. this would gived us a longterm body to use to do science and testing on. to use as a means of further exploring the planets. . better than launching temporary materials into space .

Yes true

Thanks,

So..... comet's don't contain heavy water now? If a giant moon sized rock smashed into another moon side rock.... wouldn't they explode....and if not what slightly smaller and smaller sized objects...and if at some smaller size...how do largest sizes ever develope?

Dzien dobry mam pytanie w sensie planety nibiru Czy ona istnieje. I czy uderzy w nas 12.sierpnia prosze o odpowiedz?

Hmmm... Ceres likely formed in gas-giant region? Could she possibly be an escaped moon of Jupiter or Saturn? Or even Uranus or Neptune? Maybe Triton has kicked Ceres off Neptune while claiming its orbital space? Can this be dynamically linked or disproved?

Starts at 8:08

I imagine a place of shear chaos, The Pinball Wizard's worst nightmare. 1:00:56 Where they might have formed is an easy question. When I hear the question how did they get to where they are... ask Tommy?
