Asteroids, Meteors, and Comets - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

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