What else can I help you with?
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.
Do meteorites asteroids and comets travel in their own orbits?
no.....
What do asteroids meteorites and comets have in common?
They are all very hot.
What two space objects produce meteorites?
Asteroids and comets are the two space objects that produce meteorites when they enter Earth's atmosphere and survive the descent to reach the surface. Asteroids are rocky objects that orbit the Sun, while comets are composed of ice, dust, and rock.
What can impact a planet?
Meteroids or comets can impact on a planet.
Other members of the solar system?
asteroids comets meteoroids meteor meteorites
What small objects are made of ice and dust asteroids comets meteors or meteorites?
Some comets are made of ice and dust.
What do comets and asteroids not have in common?
Comets are Comets and Asteroids are Asteroids
How do comets meteorites and asteroids differ?
Comets are icy bodies made of dust, rock, and frozen gases that orbit the Sun, meteorites are asteroid fragments that have entered Earth's atmosphere and landed on its surface, and asteroids are rocky bodies that orbit the Sun primarily in the asteroid belt located between Mars and Jupiter.
How are comets asteroids and meteorites different?
Asteroids orbit the Sun between the orbits of the planet Mars and the planet Jupiter. Comets orbit the Sun on very elliptical orbits, originating from the Kuiper belt beyond the orbit of Neptune or the Oort cloud at the edges of the solar system. Comets are also usually (but not always) icy bodies that give of gas and dust (a tail) as they approach and get heated by the Sun. Meteorites are bodies that were Asteroids or Comets that have hit the planet Earth and landed on the surface.
What are 5 things that exist in your solar system?
Planets Human Beings (On Earth) Stars Comets Meteors/Meteorites Asteroids
How can studying meteorites help us understand the composition of asteroids?
Meteorites help us understand the composition of asteroids because meteorites are small asteroids.
