What else can I help you with?
Do comets and meteors have anything in common?
Yes they do, they are both rocks from outer-space. They both have a nucleus and they both travel in space. The thing that comets and meteors have in common is that they all travel in space and most of them all have not changed because of their formation in the solar nebula.
Is a comet and a meteor considered to be small planets?
No, comets and meteors are not considered to be small planets. Comets are simply considered to be comets, and meteors are simply considered to be meteors. (Meteors are asteroids that have entered the atmosphere.)
When were comets and meteors formed?
Comets and meteors were formed, along with the rest of the solar system, about four and a half billion years ago.
What do meteors and comets have in common?
Meteors and comets actually have very little in common. Comets do fly through space, while meteors USED TO be flying through space. Both glow.Meteors are the momentary flare of a space rock (more often a space pebble or space grain of sand) as it impacts the Earth's atmosphere and is incinerated by the enormous heat of the shock wave. Comets glow because the Sun's light and light-pressure vaporize the frozen gasses of the comet's nucleus, and light up the gas and dust.Meteors are typically the size of a grain of sand, or a grain of dust; big ones may be the size of a grain of rice. Thousands of meteors like this strike the Earth each hour. Once a week or so, space rocks the size of a softball or a basket ball strike the Earth, and some of these actually make it through the atmosphere and hit the ground.Comets are far larger, typically a few miles or more in diameter. They are mostly frozen gas, and the ice binds a few rocks and a lot of dust. Astronomers have compared them to "dirty snowballs".
What always contains ice comets Asteroids or meteors?
Comets contain ice.
Do comets and meteors both orbit the sun?
