Rhodia is a main-belt asteroid. The asteroid belt is the region of
the Solar System located roughly between the orbits of the planets
Mars and Jupiter. It is occupied by numerous irregularly shaped
bodies called asteroids or minor planets. The asteroid belt is also
termed the main asteroid belt or main belt because there are other
asteroids in the Solar System such as near-Earth asteroids and
trojan asteroids. Maybe half the mass of the belt is contained in
the four largest asteroids: 1 Ceres, 4 Vesta, 2 Pallas, and 10
Hygiea. These have mean diameters of more than 400 km, while Ceres,
the asteroid belt's only identified dwarf planet, is about 950 km
in diameter.
