  1. Meteors are found in the Earth’s atmosphere, dry, barren land, or Antarctica.
  2. Some asteroids have moons
  3. Meteors are when meteoroids pass through Earth’s atmosphere and burn up.
  4. Meteors are small pieces of rock or metal from space that burn up when entering Earth’s atmosphere
  5. Asteroids are found in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter
  6. Some asteroids have water-ice trapped in their rubble mass
  7. Comets are nicknamed ‘dirty snowballs’
  8. Asteroids revolve around the Sun in elliptical orbits
  9. Comets are found in the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud.
  10. Millions of asteroids exist in the solar system.
  11. Meteors can be called “shooting stars”
  12. Asteroids are made up of rock
  13. A coma is the dusty, gaseous atmosphere that surrounds the nucleus of a comet
  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. Meteorites are meteoroids that survive their passage through the atmosphere and land on Earth’s surface.
  16. Comets are primarily composed of ice, dust, and rock

  19. Meteor showers occur when earth passes through debris
  20. Meteoroids are chunks of rock or metal that orbit the sun
  21. Comets have two tails; a dust tail and an ion tail
  22. A comet’s nucleus is made up of frozen water and gases mixed with dust and rock material
  23. Comets move in a highly elliptical orbit around the Sun
  24. Comet tails can be millions of miles long
