No. They are large clouds of dust and rocks moving through space. When the light from the sun strikes such a cloud, it gives it the appearance of a large solid object moving through space and trailing a tail. In reality, the "tail" is the refracted light on the same side of the cloud as the sun. The sun exerts a gravitational influence on the cloud and the tail generally leads the comet rather than following it. The moon is not involved.

How did the water get on the moon?
There are a few possible explanations for the water on the moon. The most likely one is that the solar winds and the rocks and soil on the moon interacted. Since the wind is hydrogen, and the soil is oxygen, it creates water. Another possibility would be that comets containing water collided with the moon and left behind water.
Why are planets their moons asteroids and comets not stars?
The moon will not die out. The asteroids and comets are the same. A comet (asteroid) are rocks from space.When it gets to close to the Earth it gets pulled by gravity and it causes this space rock to catch on fire.
Why don't the rocks float on the moon?
The gravity is just weaker on the moon, it's still there. The gravity pulls the rocks down.
Does the moon have rocks?
yes the moon does have rocks... duhhh
What piece of evidence convinced scientists that some meteorites could have come from the moon?
rocks
What features of the moon are caused by rocks or comets that crash into its surface?
Craters :)
What caused of the craters of the moon?
comets hitting the Moon's surface. Just like Earth :)
How were comets observed to prove they were beyond the moon?
Comets have a parallax smaller than the Moon's
