Does a comet's tail trail behind it throughout its journey through the solar system?
No. A comets tail is created when water evaporates off the comet, this can only happen when the comet is near enough to the sun for water to evaporate. The tail of a comet does not follow behind it but always points away from the sun because of the solar wind.
What is a chunk of ice and dust whose orbit is usually a long narrow eclipse?
comet
What travels in long orbits around the sun with a long tail behind it sometimes called dirty snowballs?
Comets travel in long orbits around the sun, and they are made up of ice, rock, and dust. The tail of a comet forms when it gets close to the sun, causing the ice on its surface to vaporize and create a glowing trail of gas and dust.
What is is comet?
A comet is an icy body that releases gas or dust. Most of the comets that can be seen from Earth travel around the sun in long, oval orbits.
What is the comet part that can be millions of miles long?
The tail of a comet is over a million miles long.

What does cometent mean?
a comet is a loose collection of ice, dust, and rocky particles typically with a long, narrow orbit.A comet is a ball of dust of ice, that travels through the solar system.
What is a loose collection of ice dust and small rocky particles that typically has a long narrow orbit?
That description fits a comet. Comets are made up of ice, dust, and rock, and they have long, elliptical orbits around the Sun.
How long can dust tail of a comet get?
5'4" is the biggest one and the smallest one is 3'3"

What is made out of gas and dust particles and has a long tail that always points away from the Sun?
A comet is made out of gas and dust particles, with a long tail that always points away from the Sun due to the solar wind interacting with its nucleus as it heats up and releases gas and dust particles.

The tail of a comet is over a million miles long.
A frozen chunk of ice and dust from outside the solar system?
The frozen chunk of ice and dust from outside the solar system is called a comet. Comets are composed of ice, dust, and rocky material and originate from the outer regions of the solar system. When a comet approaches the Sun, the heat causes the ice to vaporize, creating a long tail that points away from the Sun.
Why can asteroid or comet cause a very long winter?
After an impact with an asteroid or comet, a lot of dust is flung into the atmosphere. All this dust blocks the Sun's light, causing global temperatures to drop, and consequently - longer winters.
