                                    In this work, we study the gravitational influence of the material
extending from Uranus orbit to the Kuiper belt and beyond on objects
moving within these regions. We conclude that a density distribution
given by ρ (r)=(1)/(r) (for r >= 20 AU) generates a constant
acceleration towards the Sun on those objects, which, with the proper
amount of mass, accounts for the blue shift detected on the Pioneers
space crafts. We also discuss the effect of this gravitational pull on
Neptune, and comment on the possible origin of such a matter
distribution.
