The namesake cliff of this object occurs at the location of 1:2 resonance. First theorized by Frederick Leonard, the improved accuracy of charge-coupled devices was key to its discovery by David Jewitt and Jane Luu. The "classical" objects of this location are referred to as cubewanos, while the farthest ones from the Earth are two·tinos. The potential dwarf planet named for the creator god of the Tongva people, Quaoar, is in this region. The Centaurs are minor planets that lie inside it, and Nereid, Phoebe, and Triton are thought to have their origin here. Sometimes named for Kenneth Edgeworth, for 10 points, name this origin of short-term comets nearer than the Oort Cloud.
