Re: Neptune Trojans

The recent discovery of more Neptune Trojan asteroids indicates the existence of the densest asteroid clouds in the solar system.

Evidence suggests that the Neptune Trojans are more numerous than either the main asteroid belt or the Jupiter Trojans, but they are hard to observe because they are so far away from the Sun.

Re: Neptune Trojans

I wonder if anyone has tracked the path of the Centaurs like Chiron (or other bodies) to see if we have any perturbers to move through this region of space.
