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