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