Vulcanoid
The vulcanoids are a hypothetical population of asteroids that orbit the Sun in a dynamically stable zone inside the orbit of the planet Mercury . They are named after the hypothetical planet Vulcan , whose existence was disproven in 1915 with the advent of general relativity . So far, no vulcanoids have been discovered, and it is not yet clear if any exist.

Vulcanoids are a hypothetical group of asteroids that may orbit in a dynamically stable zone between 0.08 and 0.21 astronomical units from the Sun , well within the orbit of Mercury . They take their name from the hypothetical planet Vulcan , which nineteenth-century astronomers fruitlessly searched for to explain the excess precession of Mercury's perihelion . Virtually all the anomaly in Mercury's orbit later turned out to be an effect explained by general relativity , removing the need to postulate the existence of Vulcan. |
