This website addresses the physics of Asteroids, Comets and Meteoroids as well as their unique characteristics and impact on society.

Historically, space has fascinated scientists throughout the centuries. In 1923, scientists realized that millions of other galaxies made up the universe and that the universe covered a vast area larger than previously thought.

Overtime, technological advances have enabled astronomers, scientists and researchers to uncover the hidden depths and structures that make up space.

The following links to the left are intended to help students learn how physics applies to asteroids, comets and meteoroids.
