Description: Provides detailed information on asteroids, comets and meteoroids.
SP-345 Evolution of the Solar System The small bodies are asteroids, comets, and meteoroids (down to the size of subvisual grains). In our analysis we shall concentrate our attention on the small bodies because they contain so much important information about the early periods of the evolution of the solar system. Furthermore, the embryonic (planetesimal) state leading to the formation of planets and satellites must necessarily have been similar, at least in some respects, to the present dynamic state of the small bodies, and we can learn much about the former by studying the latter.
