Early solar system?

Comets are sometimes called dirty snowballs or "icy mudballs". They are a mixture of ices (both water and frozen gases) and dust that for some reason didn't get incorporated into planets when the solar system was formed. This makes them very interesting as samples of the early history of the solar system.

Summary:Well what i learned is that comets are made out of both water and gases.Also comets are aslo called dirty snowballs.Comets come from the oort cloud and kiper belt comets have a coma and a nucleus.
