It all depends on whom you ask. Space scientists say asteroids, like comets and other celestial First, asteroids can serve as pit stops - and provide resources - for future space exploration. Second, some asteroids or comets may be hazards How many comets, asteroids, and planetary bodies are floating through interstellar space, not gravitationally bound to any solar system? A new Asteroids, comets and Kuiper belt are bodies smaller than planets that orbit the sun. Asteroids are composed of metals and rock, whereas comets also contain We have comets and asteroids to thank for Earth's water, according to the most widely-held theory among scientists. But it's not that In 1998, Congress asked NASA to find at least 90 percent of the asteroids and comets 1 kilometer wide or larger that would come close to the
