The Oort cloud is thought to comprise two separate regions : a spherical outer Oort cloud and a disc-shaped inner Oort cloud , or Hills cloud .

The Oort cloud is made up of an Inner Oort cloud and an Outer Oort cloud .


Although no confirmed direct observations of the Oort cloud have been made , astronomers argue that it is the source of all long-period and Halley-type comets entering the inner Solar System and many of the centaurs and Jupiter-family comets as well .

The Oort Cloud is believed to be the source of long-period comets in the Solar System .


The outer cloud is only weakly bound to the Sun and supplies the long-period ( and possibly Halley-type ) comets to inside the orbit of Neptune .

The Oort cloud \ / ˈɔrt \ / ( named after the Dutch astronomer Jan Oort ) , or Öpik-Oort cloud , is a hypothesized spherical cloud of predominantly icy planetesimals that may lie roughly 50,000 AU , or nearly a light-year , from the Sun .

The Oort cloud may lie about 50,000 AU , or nearly a light-year , from the Sun .


Halley-family comets , named for their prototype , Halley 's Comet , are unusual in that while they are short-period comets , it is hypothesized that their ultimate origin lies in the Oort cloud , not in the scattered disc .

The Oort cloud was named after him , as were the Oort Comet , and Oort Constants .
