- A __ is a “dirty snowball” of ice and rocky debris, typically a few miles across, that orbits the Sun in a long ellipse. When close to the Sun, the warmth evaporates the ice in the nucleus to form a coma (cloud of gas) and a tail. Named for their discoverers, comets sometimes make return visits after as little as a few years or as long as tens of thousands of years.
- When the Moon or a planet appears especially close either to another planet or to a bright star.

- A vast collection of stars, gas, and dust, typically 10,000 to 100,000 light-years in diameter and containing billions of stars (from galaxias kuklos, Greek for “circle of milk,” originally used to describe our own Milky Way).___ may be spiral (with one or more spiral-shape arms), elliptical (shaped more like fuzzy footballs with no distinguishing features), or irregular (chaotic appearance).
