ELABORATE
Comets and asteroids are referred to by
astronomers as Near-Earth Objects (NEO).
Comets are icy bodies or objects while
asteroids are rocky fragments.
They are remnants from the formation of our
solar system 4.6 billion years ago Comets and
asteroids have irregular shapes and varied
sizes. They both reflect light from the sun in
varying amounts depending on the size and
composition. The presence of more silicates
allows a comet or asteroid to reflect light.
Comets and asteroids both orbit around the
sun. This means, you can see a comet for up
to a year in the night sky. The major
difference is their origin or where they came
from in space.
