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