A comet is a huge chunk of ice that is floating in space, its path determined by the gravity of planets Sometimes, you can see a tail of a comet. This tail is actual water vapor that is produced when the comet goes too near the sun.

I think you mean comet. If that's the case then here is the defination or else post your question with correct spelling again.

A comet is a small astronomical object similar to an asteroid but composed largely of ice. Comets typically move in highly elliptical orbits, the aphelia of which may be many times more distant than Pluto's orbit. Often described as "dirty snowballs", comets are composed largely of frozen carbon dioxide, methane and water with dust and various mineral aggregates mixed in.

A celestial body, observed only in that part of its orbit that is relatively close to the sun, having a head consisting of a solid nucleus surrounded by a nebulous coma up to 2.4 million kilometers (1.5 million miles) in diameter and an elongated curved vapor tail arising from the coma when sufficiently close to the sun. Comets are thought to consist chiefly of ammonia, methane, carbon dioxide, and water.

Hi Murali....Murali do you mean comet...if so, they are nothing but
small, fragile, irregularly shaped bodies composed of a mixture of non-volatile grains and frozen gases. They have highly elliptical orbits that bring them very close to the Sun and swing them deeply into space, often beyond the orbit of Pluto.

pls go through the following like to know more about them.

COMA.

You're in unconcious state but your heart is still pumping blood circulate all around your body.

This happen during severe head or internal body injury.

You're basically living dead.

(Some do awake after long coma ).
