SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -Comets are frozen leftovers from the formation of the solar system composed of dust, rock, and ices.

Detailed explanation-2: -Solar System A star system is a group of planets, meteors, or other objects that orbit a large star. While there are many star systems, including at least 200 billion other stars in our galaxy, there is only one solar system. That’s because our sun is known by its Latin name, Sol.

Detailed explanation-3: -Some of these newly formed balls of dust and ice compacted into rock and remained small, becoming asteroids. But some of these formations continued to gather debris and material, growing ever larger in size.

Detailed explanation-4: -An asteroid is a rocky object that orbits the Sun. Asteroids are smaller than a planet, but they are larger than the pebble-size objects we call meteoroids. Comets are small icy dirtballs that orbit the Sun; comets are made of ice and dust while asteroids are made of rock).

Detailed explanation-5: -Comets Are Made of Ice Comets have been called “dirty snowballs.” They are small celestial objects, made of ice, gas, dust, and a small amount of organic material, that orbit our Sun. There are about 1000 known comets and more are discovered each year.
