Summary[edit]

Description
English: Journey of the New Horizons space probe through the Solar System and beyond.[1]

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/12/181227152745.htm

The Kuiper Belt lies in the so-called "third zone" of our solar system, beyond the terrestrial planets (inner zone) and gas giants (middle zone). This vast region contains billions of objects, including comets, dwarf planets like Pluto and "planetesimals" like Ultima Thule. The objects in this region are believed to be frozen in time -- relics left over from the formation of the solar system.
