The hypothesized brown dwarf Nemesis is said to reside within this region, and a disc-shaped area that regularly exchanges matter with this object is called the (*) Hills Cloud. It is sometimes named for the Estonian scientist who hypothesized it; that man was Ernst Öpik. It is usually named for the Dutchman who proposed it, and it is the origin for many long-period comets, such as Hale-Bopp. For 10 points, name this region that determines the outer boundary of our solar system.
