comet
A celestial body consisting mainly of ice, dust and gas in an (usually very eccentric) orbit around the Sun and having a "tail" of matter blown back from it by the solar wind as it approaches the Sun
A celestial phenomenon with the appearance given by the orbiting celestial body
{n} a kind of star, a blazing-star
a medium-sized, icy object orbiting the Sun; smaller than a planet
A comet is a planetesimal in orbit around the sun Comets are believed to be composed of dust and volatile ices When close to the sun, comets become heated enough to produce a coma of gas and dust As this gas and dust moves outward from the comet, it is "blown" away by the solar wind and forms the comet's tail
A solid body composed primarily of a combination of ice and cosmic dust They are thought to have formed very far out in the solar nebula early in the formation of the solar system There are those with close-in orbits, the Kuiper objects which orbit out near Uranus, and the Oort Cloud objects, which orbit at very large distances out from the Sun Occasionally, these orbits are perturbed so that the comets come into the inner solar system
n a dirty ball of ice and rock that originateees in deep space in a hypothetical region called the Oort Cloud, a place halfway to the closest stars
A small Solar System object, composed mainly of ice, dust and rocky material, in orbit around the Sun As a comet approaches the Sun, it frequently forms tails of dust and plasma, blown away from the comet by the Sun's radiation pressure and solar wind The tails always point away from the Sun
A comet commonly consists of three parts: the nucleus, the envelope, or coma, and the tail; but one or more of these parts is frequently wanting
{i} celestial body with a luminous tail
A member of the solar system which usually moves in an elongated orbit, approaching very near to the sun in its perihelion, and receding to a very great distance from it at its aphelion
A body of the solar system, composed of ices and rocks The frozen material evaporates as the comet approaches the sun and, driven away by the solar wind, forms the comet tail (More information can be found here )
A small chunk of ice, dust, and rocky material (only a few miles across) which, when it comes close enough to the Sun, can develop a tenuous "tail '' Tails of comets are made of gas and dust that have been driven off the comet's surface by the Sun's energy and they always point away from the Sun (no matter what direction the comet is moving) Comets spend most of their time very far from the Sun, and are active only for a short period (a few months at most) as they move quickly around the Sun on their elongated orbits
An object orbiting the Sun, often made of ice (although not necessarily water ice ) Comets are usually seen when they enter the inner Solar System, and heat from the Sun causes gas and dust to stream out in several tails Many comets have a straight gas tail and a curved dust tail The tail(s) will always be pointed away from the Sun, regardless of the comet's direction See also: asteroid
A body moving through our solar system that has an icy nucleus Solar wind (radiation pressure) directs the tail of gas and dust away from the sun [2: asteroid ]; [2: meteorite ]
An icy object in independent orbit about the Sun; smaller than a planet, usually having a highly elliptical orbit extending out to beyond Jupiter
See Illustration in Appendix
One of the small, icy bodies that orbit the sun that make tails of gas and dust when they get close to the sun See Asteroid, Comet and Meteor Facts page
small interplanetary body consisting of ices and dust that is in orbit around the Sun As it nears the Sun, its surface material vaporizes to form a large head, or coma, at whose center lies a bright nucleus where its mass is concentrated
a medium-sized icy object orbiting the Sun; smaller than a planet
