What is the Oort Cloud and where does the edge of our solar system actually lie?
In this video, we break down the simple astronomy, physics, and scale of the vast spherical shell of icy debris surrounding our solar system.
Discover how trillions of icy objects left over from the formation of the planets orbit thousands of astronomical units away from the Sun.
Learn how gravitational nudges from passing stars knock these frozen remnants toward the inner solar system, creating long-period comets, and explore why the Oort Cloud marks the true outer boundary of the Sun's gravitational pull.
