Do comets and meteors have anything in common?

Can a space shuttle land on mars?

No. A meteorite is an object that has already come through the Earth's atmosphere from space. On the way down, they are called meteors. A space shuttle, whether above or below the atmosphere, would need to avoid meteors at all costs. Since meteors are just rocks on the way from space to Earth, a shuttle therefore could not travel to them. Two kinds of space objects that spacecraft "could" travel to are comets and asteroids. But the space shuttle is not the proper kind of vehicle for such explorations.

Can sound energy travel through the vacuum of space?

No sound can travel through space. Sound travels by vibrating adjacent molecules. The sound wave travels along these molecules until it dissipates with distance. In the vacuum of space, there are no molecules (this is not considering celestial bodies like planets or meteors because they are not a part of the vacuum), so sound cannot travel.
