At the end of the 16th century, the astronomer Johann Kepler discovered a huge empty space between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. He concluded that such a gap and empty space must be the cradle of a planet because the empty space between Mars and Jupiter is too huge to be devoid of celestial bodies.

The idea of a planet between Mars and Jupiter was raised among scientists, Until in the year 1811, astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi discovered a small object orbiting the sun in the mysterious empty space. The celestial body that later took the name "Ceres" and convinced the curiosity of scientists for a while. They thought they had found the predicted planet.

Subsequent observations revealed that Ceres is too small to be considered a planet. During the years after the discovery of Ceres, scientists discovered countless tiny objects in the famous empty space between Mars and Jupiter, and their tinyness prompted astronomer William Herschel to call the tiny celestial objects between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter by another name, " Asteroids".

Until the middle of the 19th century, scientists found many celestial objects in that empty space and finally recognized William Herschel's argument and called the rocky irregular shaped objects in the huge space between Mars and Jupiter as asteroids. Later studies determined that the huge gravitational field of Jupiter is the biggest reason for the crowding of celestial bodies in the empty space between Mars and Jupiter. Since the asteroid wall between Mars and Jupiter was like a border between four inner planets and four outer gas giants, scientists called it the "Asteroid Belt"

Ya'll, I have a question
Is passion what you look for or what you make it up ?

Here's what I found on Google .👇

Passions are a combination of innate tendencies and cultivated interests. While you might be born with certain inclinations, it's through exploration, nurturing, and personal growth that you discover and develop true passions.
