  1. Meteors are when meteoroids pass through Earth’s atmosphere and burn up.
  2. Meteoroids are chunks of rock or metal that orbit the sun
  3. Comet tails can be millions of miles long
  4. Comets have two tails; a dust tail and an ion tail
  5. Asteroids revolve around the Sun in elliptical orbits
  6. Meteorites are meteoroids that survive their passage through the atmosphere and land on Earth’s surface.
  7. Comets are found in the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud.
  8. Meteors are small pieces of rock or metal from space that burn up when entering Earth’s atmosphere
  9. Meteor showers occur when earth passes through debris
  10. Comets are nicknamed ‘dirty snowballs’
  11. Meteors are sometimes observed with red, yellow, or green trails.
  12. Asteroids are found in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter
  13. Comets move in a highly elliptical orbit around the Sun
  14. 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
  15. Comets are primarily composed of ice, dust, and rock
  16. A comet’s nucleus is made up of frozen water and gases mixed with dust and rock material
  17. Asteroids are made up of rock
  18. Meteors are found in the Earth’s atmosphere, dry, barren land, or Antarctica.
  19. Millions of asteroids exist in the solar system.
  20. A coma is the dusty, gaseous atmosphere that surrounds the nucleus of a comet
  21. Some asteroids have moons
  22. Some asteroids have water-ice trapped in their rubble mass
  23. Meteors move when it enters Earth’s atmosphere. Doing so can slow down its orbital speed.
  24. Meteors can be called “shooting stars”
