comets*, meteorites*, planets*, suns (stars), wind (weather-related phenomena)*
  • comets - An extraterrestrial body consisting of a frozen mass and rock debris that travels around the Sun in a highly elliptical orbit; it generally developes a diffuse gaseous envelope and a long luminous tail when near the Sun.
  • meteorites - Interplanetary particles or chunks of stony or metallic matter that survive the passage through the Earth's atmosphere and strike the ground, or that strike any other planet.
  • planets - Generally, a planet is any relatively large natural body that revolves in an orbit around the Sun or around some other star and that is not radiating energy from internal nuclear fusion reactions; any natural object orbiting a star that is not a brown dwarf but bigger than an asteroid. Specifically, a planet meets this definition: an object that orbits the sun, is large enough to have become round due to the force of its own gravity, and dominates the neighborhood around its orbit.
  • suns (stars)
  • wind (weather-related phenomena) - Moving air, especially a natural and perceptible movement of air parallel to or along the ground American Heritage Dictionary (2000)
