CometsComet compositionCometary evolutionThe ISSI workshop on "Origin and evolution of comet nuclei" had the goal to put together recent scientific findings concerning the "life" of a comet from the formation of the material in a dark molecular cloud to the accretion in the early solar system,...
Structure and Composition of Comets Astronomers now have a fairly good idea of what a comet really is. When it is far from the Sun, it is a very small object only a few kilometers across. It consists mainly of ices (water,methane, ammonia) with bits of dust embedded in it -a kind...
This disintegration was observed by many astronomers and provided valuable information about the composition of comets. The Hale-Bopp CometDiscovered in 1995 by Alan Hale and Thomas Bopp, the Hale-Bopp Comet is one of the most famous comets in recent history. It was visible to the naked eye...

The Composition of Meteors Meteors are tiny solid particles that enter Earth’s atmosphere from interplanetary space. Since the particles move at speeds of many kilometers per second, friction with the air vaporizes them at altitudes between 80 and 130 kilometers. The resulting flashes of ...

This raises the question of whether the composition of comets — a reliable indicator of the composition of the solar nebula — is unique to the Solar System or commonly accompanies planet formation. Here Karin Öberg et al. report the detection of cyanides — CH3CN, HC3N and HCN — in...
OK, comets and asteroids… it might help if you think of… Remember we talked about the two classes of planets in our solar system?And how they differ in composition…[reviewing] the terrestrial planets like Mars and Earth…composed largely of rocks and metals,and the large gas giants like...
Overall, the green color of comets is a result of the complex interplay between the solar radiation, the composition of the coma and tail, and the physical properties of the gas and dust in the coma. What if I miss watching C/2022 E3 (ZTF)?
