What else can I help you with?
Is a comet and a meteor considered to be small planets?
No, comets and meteors are not considered to be small planets. Comets are simply considered to be comets, and meteors are simply considered to be meteors. (Meteors are asteroids that have entered the atmosphere.)
How are meteors asteroids and comets the same and different?
Meteors, asteroids, and comets are all objects in space. Meteors are shooting stars that enter Earth's atmosphere, asteroids are rocky objects that orbit the Sun mostly in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and comets are icy objects that orbit the Sun in more elongated paths. While they all originate from space, their composition and behavior can vary significantly.
When were comets and meteors formed?
Comets and meteors were formed, along with the rest of the solar system, about four and a half billion years ago.
What always contains ice comets Asteroids or meteors?
Comets contain ice.
What sizes are the meteors and asteroids and comets?

Do meteors go beyond Jupiter?
Most meteors are sand grain sized objects that had been ejected from comets as they followed around their highly elliptical orbits. As most of these comets have orbits that extend beyond the orbit of Jupiter at their aphelion, then yes most of these sand grains that become meteors when they enter earth's atmosphere have been beyond the orbit of Jupiter. However they are not actually meteors until they enter earth's atmosphere, so while they are actually meteors they are nowhere near Jupiter. Many larger meteors were pieces of asteroids. The vast majority of asteroids orbit between Mars and Jupiter and thus have never been even near Jupiter, and definitely not beyond Jupiter's orbit.
What causes the rings to appear around Jupiter?
The rings around Jupiter are formed by dust and rock particles that are believed to be the remnants of asteroids or comets that have been captured by Jupiter's gravity and pulled into orbit around the planet.
What is the connection between comets and meteors?
They fly around in space.
Is a comet and a meteor considered to be small planets?
No, comets and meteors are not considered to be small planets. Comets are simply considered to be comets, and meteors are simply considered to be meteors. (Meteors are asteroids that have entered the atmosphere.)
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.
Which of these always contains ice meteors asteroids or comets?
Comets
What has the author Daniel Kirkwood written?
Daniel. Kirkwood has written: 'Comets and meteors' -- subject(s): Comets, Meteors
Do comets and meteors both orbit the sun?
no only comets.
What are in the rings of planets?
Meteors. Comets

Do superstitions asteroids comets meteors have scientific basis in the Philippines?
Superstitions about asteroids, comets, and meteors have absolutely no scientific basis whatsoever.
