Comets and asteroids swoop through our solar system, inspiring fascination and fear. But what are these spectacular space bodies, where do they come from, and how can we monitor them?

Comets and Asteroids uncovers the space science that has helped us understand the dazzling giant rocks and glittering comets that loop the sun, crash into planets, and even destroy life.

Science-filled explanatory text reveals what and how we have learned about asteroids and comets, the history of this space science, and what the future holds. Detailed sidebars set out fascinating facts about asteroids and comets. Use your STEM and critical-thinking skills to complete the "Your Mission" activities to find out how you would solve space problems and head missions to discover more about the mysterious space bodies that orbit high above us. Budding space scientists are encouraged to think about what your contribution to space science could be and if a future career in this field might be for you.
