A small ball of ice, rock, and cosmic dust that orbits the Sun is called a comet. Comets typically have a nucleus made of ice and dust, and when they approach the Sun, they can develop a glowing coma and a tail due to the sublimation of their icy components. Their orbits are often highly elliptical, bringing them close to the Sun and then back into the outer solar system.
