AI overview

The Oort cloud is a vast, theoretical shell of icy objects believed to surround our solar system at its outermost edge. It matters because it's thought to be the source of long-period comets that occasionally travel into the inner solar system, helping scientists understand the origins and structure of our cosmic neighborhood.
