contains many binary systems
is not well understood is still being explored is a focus of ongoing research is thought to contain many objects larger than 100 km contains many icy objects is home to many dwarf planets is important for understanding planetary formation is of interest to astronomers is often depicted in science fiction is often studied in relation to exoplanets is often studied using telescopes is thought to be dynamic is thought to be the source of many comets is thought to be a remnant of the protoplanetary disk is thought to contain many objects with unusual orbits trans-Neptunian_objects is_important_for_understanding_the_Solar_System's_evolution is_often_studied_for_its_potential_to_reveal_the_history_of_the_Solar_System is_influenced_by_the_gravity_of_Neptune objects_can_be_found_in_resonance_with_Neptune is_thought_to_be_a_source_of_information_about_the_early_Solar_System is_often_compared_to_the_Kuiper_Belt_of_other_star_systems is_thought_to_have_formed_early_in_the_Solar_System's_history |
