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