Green Points

What are they? AstroMark (talk) 14:21, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

Assuming the picture hasn't been altered since you asked, it already says in the key: they're Centaurs, IE minor planets orbiting between Jupiter and Neptune but not tied to any of the giant planets themselves.

What I want to know is whether all the shown "Jupiter Trojans" are correct, as there seem to be an awful lot of brown dots that appear to be nowhere near Jupiter or even anything close to its lagrangian points (including some that are outside its orbit and at something very close to 0 or 180 degrees relative to its position)... Doesn't quite seem right to have a lot of trans-Neptunian Jupiter Trojans... 209.93.141.17 17:47, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

It looks like the key is different from the one provided for the image on Wikipedia. This one calls the Resonant Kuiper B, as Wikipedia has it, the Scattered disk; the shade that Wikipedia calls the scattered disk, that very dark green, doesn't seem to show up at all. I suspect Wikipedia's version, then, is more accurate.--Yellow Diamond (talk) 23:51, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
