About this app

Asteroids are rocky objects that orbit the Sun, mainly found between Mars and Jupiter. They come in various shapes and sizes, from tiny pebbles to large boulders. They are remnants from the early solar system, offering clues about its history and composition.

Meteoroids are small fragments of space debris, like tiny travelers in space. When they enter Earth's atmosphere, they become meteors or "shooting stars." Most are small and burn up before reaching the Earth's surface, but some can land as meteorites.

Meteorites are meteoroids that survive the fiery journey through Earth's atmosphere and land on our planet. They provide valuable insights into the composition of the solar system and can come in various types, including stony, iron, and stony-iron meteorites.

Meteor Shower: Meteor showers are celestial events when Earth passes through the path of a comet, leading to a spectacular display of meteors. These meteors are usually small fragments from the comet's tail, creating a natural light show in the night sky for us to enjoy.

Comets are cosmic wanderers composed of ice, dust, and rocky material. As they approach the Sun, they release gas and dust, forming a bright, glowing tail. Comets are like space travelers with stunning, luminous trails and can reveal insights about the early solar system.
