This series of lectures will explore the current structure of the outer Solar System, including the giant planets, their satellites, the Trojans, the trans-Neptunian population, the Oort cloud and comets. We'll also look at models relating to its origin, with a particular focus on the Nice model on the occasion of its twentieth anniversary.
