Detailed explanation-1: -Comets are small icy dirtballs that orbit the Sun; comets are made of ice and dust while asteroids are made of rock). A meteor is a space rock-or meteoroid-that enters Earth’s atmosphere, as it – burns up upon entering Earth’s atmosphere, it creating a streak of light in the sky (often called “shooting stars").
Detailed explanation-2: -Asteroids, sometimes called minor planets, are rocky, airless remnants left over from the early formation of our solar system about 4.6 billion years ago.
Detailed explanation-3: -Comets are frozen leftovers from the formation of the solar system composed of dust, rock, and ices. They range from a few miles to tens of miles wide, but as they orbit closer to the Sun, they heat up and spew gases and dust into a glowing head that can be larger than a planet.
