Asteroids Poster

Learn about asteroids with this detailed and informative poster from Discover magazine.

Our early solar system was a wild place.  Dust grains grew into pebbles, and pebbles became world-building planetesimals.  These rocks spun around and bumped into each other in a chaotic dance that left a trail of debris in its wake.  The remnants of these festivities remain strewn about our cosmic backyard.  Many rocky and metallic bodies now orbit in what's called the Main Asteroid Belt, between Mars and Jupiter.  Learn about clues to the earliest days of our solar system, as well as the promise of valuable minerals and precious resources with this poster!
