meteor evolution - kids learning tube lyrics

[chorus]
here’s the difference between these sp*ce rocks that you will see
asteroid, meteoroid and comets, and some with stages between
these different celestial bodies are important to learn
we’re all part of this universe, let’s give these sp*ce rocks their turn

[verse 1]
i’m an asteroid, also called a minor planet to some
a rocky airless remnant left over from our solar system’s formation
you can find a lot of asteroids orbiting our sun
between mars and jupiter, within the asteroid belt i run
i can range in size from about 329 miles down to 33 feet small
i’ve been here for a while
i’m made up of different kinds of rocks and some have clays and metals
such as nickel and iron found in frying pans or kettles

[verse 2]
i’m a meteoroid, i’m smaller than an asteroid, you see
my size can range from a grain of dust to a small asteroid, yeah, that is me
i orbit the sun, i’m made of minerals called silicates
which is silicon and oxygen, i’m glad that you’re learning this
i’m also made of heavier metals like nickel and iron
let’s go explore a little more about what other names i can become
if i enter earth’s atmosphere you’ll see a bright tail of light
if this happens and i vaporize, i’m called a meteorite, that’s right
some call me a shooting or falling star
i’m only called a meteor if i burn up completely, it’s bizarre
but if i make it through the atmosphere and reach the earth’s surface
my name changes to meteorite, that is important to learn this
i am a comet, which is dust mixed with frozen gas
when fully frozen i’m about the size of a small town, through sp*ce i do pass
i’m made of ices like water, carbon dioxide, ammonia and methane
mixed with cosmic dust from our solar system when it began
when i get close to the sun i heat up and spew dust and gas
this forms a glowing tail that stretches away from the sun as i pass
a cloud forms around my nucleus from my vaporizing ices, it’s called a coma
it can expand fifty thousand miles and it looks nice
my tail that formed can expand past six hundred thousand miles
thank you for learning about all of us, i hope we made you smile
[chorus]
here’s the difference between these sp*ce rocks that you will see
asteroid, meteoroid and comets, and some with stages between
these different celestial bodies are important to learn
we’re all part of this universe, let’s give these sp*ce rocks their turn
