the asteriod bet
If you land a space ship on a comet or asteroid, then you can touch those (at great peril); meteorites are meteors that have struck the Earth, so you can touch those here on Earth with much less peril.
Scientists usually refer to this as an asteroid, not a comet. It's the asteroid that caused the Chicxulub crater.
Meteors hitting Jupiter is an ongoing event that can happen at any time. Jupiter's strong gravitational pull can attract meteors towards it. The planet's large size and strong magnetic field also make it a frequent target for comet and asteroid impacts.
The diameter of the nucleus of Encke's Comet is 4.8 km
Ceres is bigger than Halley's comet. Ceres is a dwarf planet located in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter with a diameter of about 590 miles, while Halley's comet has a nucleus estimated to be about 6 miles wide.
An asteroid
Martian meteorites were ejected from the surface of Mars during massive asteroid and comet impacts.
No. For one thing, Halley's comet is a comet, not an asteroid. The largest asteroid is Ceres, which is far larger than Halley's comet.

You can measure or calculate things such as length, volume, mass, albedo, etc.
It is quite common for small meteors to hit the Earth. Larger impacts by an asteroid or comet are also possible but happen much less often.
