How are comets alike to planets?

Answer 1

Asteroids are the celestial bodies found in between the spaces of the planets of the solar system. But comets are mysterious bodies that go far away from the known solar system and come back once very rarely.

Answer 2

While a moon in a sense can be considered a "mirror", comets are way different.

The moon has more similar qualities to Earth then any comet, since the moon has layers such as a crust, mantle, and core.

Comets on the other hand are a different matter, for they are a mixture of ice (with the ice being so cold it could be dry ice) and dirt. That is why some people call comets "dirty snowballs."

Answer 3

Comets and planets are similar in that they both orbit around a star, such as our Sun. However, comets are composed mainly of ice, dust, and rocky material, while planets are much larger solid bodies that are formed through a process of accretion. Additionally, planets have a spherical shape due to their own gravity, while comets can have irregular shapes.

Answer 4

Comets and planets are alike only by one way-they orbit the sun and are in the solar system.

Answer 5

Asteroids are made from metal....and comets are made from some kind of ice or something.

Answer 6

by the speed they are travelling

Answer 7

they are both in space
