You're fishing for "comet", but the setup of your riddle is defective.
-- A comet need not necessarily be in orbit around the sun.
Its appearance may be a once-in-eternity event.
-- A comet only has a 'tail' during the small portion of its orbit
when it's relatively near the sun.
-- The whole notion of a "tail" is misleading. That particular whatchamacallit
always points away from the sun, so when the comet has rounded the sun
and is headed out again, the so-called 'tail' goes in front of it.
What else can I help you with?
Bright areas of the moon are called?
Bright areas on the moon are called highlands or terrae, which are large elevated regions composed mainly of anorthosite rock. These areas appear brighter than the lunar maria (dark plains) because they reflect more sunlight due to their higher elevation and composition.
What do you call a space rock while it is coming through the Earth's atmosphere?
A space rock that is entering Earth's atmosphere is called a meteoroid. As it travels through the atmosphere and begins to heat up and produce bright light, it is then referred to as a meteor or shooting star.
What are frozen balls of ice gas and rock in space called?
Frozen balls of ice, gas, and rock in space are called comets. These celestial bodies typically have highly elliptical orbits that bring them close to the Sun, where heat causes them to develop a glowing coma and tail.
This is a space rock that is passing through the atmosphere?
The space rock passing through the atmosphere is likely a meteoroid. As it enters Earth's atmosphere, it heats up due to friction, creating a bright streak of light known as a meteor or shooting star. If the rock survives the entry and lands on Earth, it becomes a meteorite.
What is the name of the celestial form that is made of frozen gases and solid rock?
The celestial form made of frozen gases and solid rock is called a comet. Comets typically have a nucleus of rock and ice surrounded by a glowing coma and sometimes a tail when they come close to the sun.
What is an icy rock that has bright tail when it comes close to the sun?
It is called a comet. The tail is formed out of gases and particles as it melts on its path round the Sun.
What is the icy rock that has bright tail when it comes close to the sun?
It is called a comet. The tail is formed out of gases and particles as it melts on its path round the Sun.
What is the rock that has bright tail when it close to the sun?
It's called a comet. They're usually cimposed of rock and ice. As the object gets close to the sun, the heat causes the ice to evaporate, and the rock to melt. This is seen as the comet's 'tail'.

What the molten rock that comes from a volcano after it has erupted is known as?
the rock is called magma
What is ball of rock that comes from the space called?
It is a meteorite.
What is a ball of rock that comes from the space called?

What is the molten rock that comes out a volcano?
That is called 'lava'
Melted rock that has come out of a volcano?
The molten rock that comes out of a volcano is called a magma.
What kind of rock forms when lava cools?
Either a type of lava called AA (ah-ah) comes out of the volcano of a type of lava called pahoho comes out.An Extrusive Igneous Rock.
