A comet is a small solar system body that orbits the Sun. When close enough to the Sun, a comet exhibits a visible coma (fuzzy "atmosphere"), and sometimes a tail, both because of the effects of solar radiation upon the comet's nucleus . Comet nuclei are themselves loose collections of ice, dust and small rocky particles, ranging from a few kilometers to tens of kilometers across. So no Mars doesn't have a comet it does have a moon tho.

Wiki User

the sun's magnet pull clears the asteriods from the orbit of mercury

How many comets does Mars have?
There are no comets that orbit the planet Mars. Comets, some, orbit the sun. Mars on the other hand does have two moons, Phobos and Deimos.
Do comets orbit mars and Jupiter?
No. Comets orbit the sun. Many asteroids orbit the sun in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
Date on which celestial bodies like mars comets were seen?
information about dates on which certain celestial bodies
Does most comets have a circular orbit that keeps them in the space between mars and Jupiter?
No, most comets do not have a circular orbit in the space between Mars and Jupiter. The majority of comets originate from two regions in our solar system: the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud. These regions are far beyond Mars and Jupiter, and the comets from these regions follow highly elliptical orbits that can take them close to the sun or far into the outer reaches of the solar system.
Are comets asteroids or meteoroids found in orbit between Mars and Jupiter?
Between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter is the asteroid belt, which contains the bulk of the solar system's asteroids. Where there are asteroids the are undoubtedly meteoroids.

No. Comets orbit the sun. Many asteroids orbit the sun in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
Why does Mars have water?
Nobody truly knows. It is likely that - as is the case for the Earth - any water was 'delivered' there by comets.
What different types of comets are there?
yes its pluto and mars
Has anything hit mars before?
Yes comets and asteroids
Does Mars have tails?
In the sense that an observer can see tails on comets - no, the gravity and composition of Mars is not favorable to the production of a tail.
What are the objects that are found in a belt orbiting the sun between mars and Jupiter?
asteroids and comets
Celesitial neighbors of earth?
Moon Near-Earth Objects (asteroids, comets) Venus Mars
What are unchanged fragments from the early period of the planet building in the solar system?
Kuiper belt comets the moons of Mars asteroids Oort cloud comets all of the above Correct

Are there currently any visible comets in your solar system?
There are no visible comets at this time.
Does the sun have any comets?
NO
