An exoasteroid, exo-asteroid or extrasolar asteroid is an asteroid located outside the Solar System. While exoasteroids and exoasteroid belts were once considered hypothetical, recent scientific studies and thorough analyses have provided evidence for their existence. Evidence Scientists propose that the formation of exoasteroids often results from the fragmentation of exoplanets by gas giants. These exoasteroids are presumed to be the remnants of smaller celestial bodies that endured the demise of their parent exoplanet. Analogous processes are hypothesized to have occurred during the Formation and evolution of the Solar System, formation of our Solar System. NASA has conducted studies affirming that the presence of asteroid belt, asteroid belts around stars is a common phenomenon in nearly any solar system hosting planets comparable in size to the outer planet, outer and inner planets of our Solar System.
