What else can I help you with?
Who was the first to realize that comets were orbiting objects?
Edmund Halley.
What is the maximum orbiting height?
A2. There is no maximum orbiting height. Consider for a moment the comets of long return period.
Where are the comets found?
It is believed that there is a large cloud of comets, called the Oort Cloud, orbiting the Sun at a relatively large distance. Now and then, one of them is budged by gravitational forces; as a result, they come closer to the Sun - where we are.
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.
What are the objects that are found in a belt orbiting the sun between mars and Jupiter?

How many comets does Mars have?
There are no comets that orbit the planet Mars. Comets, some, orbit the sun. Mars on the other hand does have two moons, Phobos and Deimos.
Is comets believed to Originate in the oort cloud?
Yes
Are there thirty moons in our solar system?
No. There are more than that. There are currently 173 known moons orbiting planets in our solar system and many more orbiting dwarf planets, asteroids, and comets.
Are comets believed to originate in the oort cloud?
True/yes
What do you mean when you make a destinction of planets orbiting and the comets floating?
There is none. Both comets and planets are in free-fall, moving in accordance with their inertia and the gravitational forces between the Sun and the planet or asteroid.
True or false comets are believed to orginate in the oort clouds?
true
