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