A comet ejects water vapors & various organic gases, asteroids are just dark clumps of space rocks/debris. You can see a comet for hours, days or even months with the naked eye in some cases whereas with asteroids they are typically only seen as they arrive, as it were.

a comet has tail behind it while a star is like a little dot.

There is no way to tell the difference between a shooting star and a comet until AFTER you've clicked on one. If you're lucky and it was a comet you will either get food or a solar suit item (boots, helmet, belt, pants, jacket). If it's a shooting star, the words shooting star will appear on your screen and all you will have done is wasted a turn.
A meteor shower happens when the Earth passes through a debris field of a comet's orbit or other similar celestial debris that may or may not have a regular cycle of occurrence. The term meteor shower refers to an unusual number of meteors visible per minute in the night sky as shooting stars. When you see a shooting star, you are actually seeing a meteor burn up in the outer reaches of our atmosphere. If you see 3 or more shooting stars (meteors burning up) per minute in the night sky, you are in a meteor shower. Most the time it is difficult to tell if you are in a meteor shower because of the low count per hour versus the count per minute. You can got to the web site for the American Meteor Society for listing and dates of various meteor showers.
