| − | An '''asteroid belt''' is a region in [[space]] where the density of [[asteroid|asteroids]] is high. There is an asteroid belt in our solar system, located between [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]]. The density of asteroids in this belt is low enough that multiple (unmanned) spacecraft have passed through it without accidents. | + | An '''asteroid belt''' is a region in [[Outer space|space]] where the density of [[asteroid|asteroids]] is high.
