Solar System - Asteroid belt
Ceres, Pallas, Hygiea, and Vesta are there too, obviously tiny compared to the sea of rocks around them.

This is Ceres!
Ceres is the only dwarf planet in our inner solar system and the largest object within the Asteroid Belt. Water vapor is being released from the dwarf planet, resulting in Ceres losing 6kg of its mass per second through steam!
