Comets, Asteroids & Meteors
Comets, asteroids, and meteors are celestial bodies in our solar system. Comets are icy bodies that release gas and dust, creating tails as they approach the sun. Asteroids are rocky, often found in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Meteors are flashes of light from meteoroids entering Earth’s atmosphere.
