AI overview
A centaur is a small icy body that orbits in the region between Jupiter and Neptune, occupying a space between the inner and outer Solar System. These objects are scientifically important because studying them helps us understand the composition and dynamics of the early Solar System, as well as how objects can transition between different orbital regions.
