The Kuiper Belt contains a vast number of objects of all shapes and sizes. Some of them are nearly as big as Earth's Moon, but many more are little bigger than a grain of rice. The total number of Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) is likely to be in the trillions. The great majority of KBOs lie in an elliptical plane that stretches out to seven and a half billion kilometres from the sun. Even travelling at the speed of light, you'd take nearly seven hours to get here from Earth.

Most people know this place as the realm of the former planet Pluto, but there are many other denizens making their way through the darkness. These objects take hundreds of years to make one orbit of the sun, and are so cold that any atmosphere they would otherwise possess lies on the surface, frozen solid.

Chris Harris Bristol, UK

I'm still trying to get the music I record to sound like the version I can hear in my head. To do this I've ended up playing every instrument I can get my hands on. These days, I'm closer to "That Sound" than I used to be, but the journey continues.
