What is the Ooort Cloud?

This existence of this cloud, which is known as the Oort Cloud, remains unproven. But from the many short and long-period comets that are believed to have come from there, astronomers have learned a great deal about it structure and composition.

The Oort cloud is an interesting feature of our solar system; a nebulous, spherical cloud of comets which marks the very outer limit of our solar system. The Oort cloud is also the source of our long period comets – those icy fragments of the early solar system which orbit our Sun very infrequently.

Have a good view!!!
