What is a lump of dusty ice?
A lump of dusty ice typically refers to a comet. Comets are made up of rock, dust, water ice, and frozen gases. When a comet gets closer to the sun, the heat causes the ice to vaporize, releasing gas and dust particles that form the characteristic tail seen from Earth.
What is the cloud that surrounds the solar system?
The Oort Cloud is a region of space surrounding our solar system that is believed to contain trillions of icy objects, such as comets, extending out to about 1 light year from the Sun. It is thought to be the source of long-period comets that occasionally enter the inner solar system.
What is the name of the part of a comet around the nucleus?
The part of a comet around the nucleus is called the coma. It is a dense cloud of gas and dust that forms around the nucleus as the comet approaches the Sun and starts to heat up, creating a glowing halo.
What is the smallest part of a comet?
The smallest part of a comet is likely the dust particles that make up its coma, which is the cloud of gas and dust that surrounds the comet's nucleus. These dust particles can be as small as a few micrometers in size.
What part of speech is cloud cover?
Cloud cover is a noun. "Expect lots of cloud cover today."
What is comet hale bopp part of?
The Oort Cloud of comets.
What part of the Oort cloud is the atmosphere?
No part of the atmosphere of any planet is any part of the Oort cloud.
Is earth part of the oort cloud?
No. Earth is part of the inner solar system. The Oort cloud, if it exists, lies beyond the orbits of all the planets.
Is Saturn part of the Oort cloud?
No. The Oort cloud is way beyond the orbit of Saturn. It's where many of the comets come from.

What is the name for the outer part of the solar system where comets can be found?
find out sombody pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
What is the most distance object in the solar system are?
The most distant objects that are actually part of our solar system are probably long-period comets that move between the inner solar system and the proposed "Oort Cloud". If we accept the theory of the Oort Cloud - that there must be a vast reservoir of comet-like material far away from the Sun, because we know that we're still seeing comets and they cannot last forever - then some bodies in the Oort Cloud would be "most distant". However, Oort Cloud objects are generally too small and too dark and too distant to be seen even in our largest telescopes; we have never detected anything out there. Yet.
What is the name given to cloud of comets far beyond your solar system?
"The Oort cloud". (Although very remote it's still part of the solar system really.)
What is the name of the part of a comet around the nucleus?
The part of a comet around the nucleus is called the coma. It is a dense cloud of gas and dust that forms around the nucleus as the comet approaches the Sun and starts to heat up, creating a glowing halo.
What part of a comet is formed due to melting of the comet by the sun's energy?
The coma of a comet is formed due to melting of the comet's nucleus by the Sun's energy. This creates a cloud of gas and dust that surrounds the nucleus and forms the visible atmosphere of the comet.
Why is Pluto an ice planet?
It's a member of the Kuiper belt (the inner part of the Oort cloud), home of comets and leftovers from the formation of the solar system.
