Saturn, just like Jupiter, is a gas giant. 
Saturn's "Atmospheric Conditions." are Hydrogen, Helium. 
Saturn has seven rings! 
FUN FACT: You can't stand on Saturn because its a gas giant, and its just a big ball of gas!]]> 2021-03-27 14:34:54 UTC https://padlet.com/100123624/Virtual/wish/1359900102 | URANUS | 100123624 https://padlet.com/100123624/Virtual/wish/1359905910 The 8th planet from our sun.

Asteroids (can) have moons.
Asteroids are leftovers of the early Solar System. Asteroids are made of different things.
Despite their small size, water may flow on asteroid surfaces.

Meteors are bits of rocks and ice ejected from comets as they move in their orbits about the sun. A meteor that reaches the ground it is called a meteorite. 
Meteor showers get their names from the constellation in where their radiant is located. 
Comets continuously eject material with each passage around the sun; this replenishes the shower meteoroids.
A fireball is a meteor that is brighter than the planet Venus. (nasa.com)]]> 2021-03-29 20:47:15 UTC https://padlet.com/100123624/Virtual/wish/1365778498 | COMETS | 100123624 https://padlet.com/100123624/Virtual/wish/1365784707 Sometimes comets are referred to as “dirty snowballs” or “cosmic snowballs”. This is because they are composed mostly of ice, rock, gas and dust. Comets orbit the Sun in elliptical paths – just like the planets. The path of a comet though is far more elliptical than that of any planet. 
A comet has four components: a nucleus, a coma, a dust tail and an ion tail. 
The nucleus of a comet contains the vast majority of its total mass. 
Comets have a halo when they move close to the Sun. (theplanets.org)
