Oort Cloud
Linear-scale view of a theoretical comet reservoir: a sparse spherical outer cloud surrounding a warped two-arm inner Oort structure.
Outer Oort Cloud: sparse spherical halo, about 20,000-100,000 AU.
Inner Oort structure: theoretical broad warped two-arm disk from recent simulations.
Linear zoom: same AU scale, animated about 3333x in 10 seconds.
