The centaurs, which are not normally considered part of the Kuiper belt, are also thought to be scattered objects, the only difference being that they were scattered inward, rather than outward.
Za Kentaure, koji se inače ne smatraju dijelom Kuiperovog pojasa, također se vjeruje da su raspršeni objekti, s jedinom razlikom u tome što su oni raspršeni prema unutra a ne vani.
