All meteorites collected on Earth come from asteroids or comets?
Most meteorites come from asteroids, which are rocky bodies orbiting the sun. Some meteorites could also come from comets, which are icy bodies. Both asteroids and comets can collide with Earth, resulting in meteorites.
How do comets come toward the earth?
Comets follow eccentric orbits that bring them closer to the Sun, causing them to release gas and dust that forms their tail. Occasionally, Earth crosses paths with these comet orbits, bringing them relatively close to our planet, but they typically pose no threat to Earth due to their small size and distant trajectory.

Comets are difficult to predict; we currently know of no comets that will be visible in 2012, but new ones are discovered periodically. No asteroids that we are aware of will approach the Earth very closely before April 13, 2029, when the asteroid Apophis will come fairly close the Earth. (But it will miss.)
When comets occasionally come close to the sun creating a bright?
When comets come close to the sun, they heat up and release gas and dust, creating a bright tail that is visible from Earth. This process is known as outgassing. The brightness of the comet depends on its size, composition, and proximity to the sun.
