Hi,

On R21950.

See this in the Alien Astrogation: (4th line of description, somewhere in middle, english version)
"as well as the distant Kupiter belt......), i believe its a typo since J and K are side by side.

I remember it should be Jupiter (in sol system) and that it indeed has a belt. But for story's sake, would not changing it to Saturn's make it even more interesting? Since Saturn has the most beautiful Astroid ring around planet.

Unless we are trying to imply the astroid belt in sol that is between Mars and Jupiter - then which it should be called "Astroid belt between Mars and Jupiter".

Well, dun mind my frequent ramblings. :P

My guess is that it's supposed to read "Kuiper belt":

Hi Richlv, thanks. I have just compiled 22076. will go back and replace my R-version. Thanks! :)

Oh, my bad. I should not have raised this issue up w/o prior deeper research into this Kuiper Belt. It seems like there is such a thing and wabewalker was right.

Though, i still think not many ppl would know what this is. I have been a science buff myself, lol, and very much into astronomy, yet did not knew much about it until today. :P My bad my bad.

Why? Cos, even on nasa's website, searching for kupiter belt would turn up nothing.... -.-" Lol.
Anyway, if the site's interested in including more readups on Kupiter Belt, here's it:
