  1. Meteors are small pieces of rock or metal from space that burn up when entering Earth’s atmosphere
  2. Some asteroids have water-ice trapped in their rubble mass
  3. Comets are found in the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud.
  4. Meteors move when it enters Earth’s atmosphere. Doing so can slow down its orbital speed.
  5. Asteroids are found in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter
  6. Asteroids revolve around the Sun in elliptical orbits
  7. Comets have two tails; a dust tail and an ion tail
  8. Comets are primarily composed of ice, dust, and rock
  9. A coma is the dusty, gaseous atmosphere that surrounds the nucleus of a comet
  10. Millions of asteroids exist in the solar system.
  11. Meteors are sometimes observed with red, yellow, or green trails.
  12. Comet tails can be millions of miles long
  13. A comet’s nucleus is made up of frozen water and gases mixed with dust and rock material
  14. Meteor showers occur when earth passes through debris
  15. Meteoroids are chunks of rock or metal that orbit the sun
  16. Meteors are when meteoroids pass through Earth’s atmosphere and burn up.
  17. Some asteroids have moons
  18. Meteors can be called “shooting stars”
  19. Comets move in a highly elliptical orbit around the Sun
  20. Asteroids are made up of rock
  21. Meteors are found in the Earth’s atmosphere, dry, barren land, or Antarctica.
  22. Comets are nicknamed ‘dirty snowballs’
  23. Meteorites are meteoroids that survive their passage through the atmosphere and land on Earth’s surface.
  24. A comet’s tail is caused when they’re partly vaporized by the sun. The tail doesn’t follow behind the comet’ it always points away from the sun
