TOPIC: Home of the Comets:  The Edge of Solar System

Have you ever wondered where do the comets come from or what separates the solar system from the interstellar medium? These questions are associated with the edge of our solar system.

This month, we will switch gear and focus on objects within our own solar system yet outside Neptune, including objects in the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud. Properties of these objects can give us hints on the origin of our solar and life.

This Astronomy Lecture is free and open to the public.
