What's all this noise around KUIPER BELT?

You heard this many times, especially when we talk about dwarf planets and comets. Is it a part of our Solar System? Or is it separate?

Kuiper Belt is like the suburbs of the Solar System. It contains all the leftovers from the formation around 4.5 billion years ago. It looks like a donut, with the Sun and the Planets in the middle.

All comets originate from it, as well as the dwarf planets, except one. Do you know the names of the four dwarf planets that are in Kuiper Belt? Write their names in the comments below!

Thanks to the New Horizons, we know a lot about this freezing and dark part of our Solar System.
