No. Comets orbit the sun. Many asteroids orbit the sun in between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
Are comets moons?
No. Comets are not moons as they orbit the sun, not planets.
Do comets orbit the sun in irregular paths?
Comets go around the Sun in a highly elliptical orbit.
Do comets revolve around other planets?
The revole around the sun
What do comets and asteroids have in common?
Comets and asteroids are both celestial bodies orbiting the Sun. Comets are icy bodies that develop a tail when passing close to the Sun, while asteroids are rocky or metallic objects that typically orbit in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Both comets and asteroids can occasionally enter Earth's vicinity.
Do comets orbit mars and Jupiter?

How are comets and the sun related?
comets orbit the sun
What effect the sun has on comets?
The sun's gravity holds comets in their orbits.The sun's radiation heats comets causing vaporization of their ices.The sun's solar wind blows vaporized ice and dust particles away from the comets forming the tail.The sun's visible light reflects from the comet and its tail, making them visible.The sun's magnetic field deflects ions in the tail, causing separation into two tails - the dust tail and the ion tail.If a comet comes too close to the sun, the comet will hit the sun and be destroyed.
Do comets orbit asteroids?
No. Comets orbit the sun.
Does Mercury's close proximity to the Sun create bright comets?
No. Mercury has nothing to do with comets. Comets are objects that orbit the sun independent of the planets.

What is a natural satellite of the sun?

Do comets orbit the sun in irregular paths?
Comets go around the Sun in a highly elliptical orbit.
Do comets orbit Jupiter?
Yes, some comets have been observed to orbit Jupiter. These comets can either be captured by Jupiter's gravity and become temporary moons, or have their orbits altered by Jupiter's gravitational pull.
