Définition
- The Oort Cloud is a vast reservoir of ice dwarfs, or deep-frozen cometary nuclei, which marks the material outer limit of the solar system and the maximum extent of the Sun's gravitational influence. It is named after Jan Oort, though Ernst Öpik was the first to postulate its existence. (Encyclopedia of Science, by David Darling, https://www.daviddarling.info/encyclopedia/O/OortCloud.html)
