 Little pieces of rocks in space are called Meteoroids. They become
shooting stars when they get heated as they fall through earth’s

atmosphere.
 A comet is an icy, small Solar System body that releases dust. We
can see a number of comets because they glow by taking heat
from the sun.
 Asteroids are small, solid, rocky bodies revolving around the sun

that are too small to be called planets.
 Black holes are the regions of space that have such strong force of
attractions, nothing can escape them.
 An astronaut is a person who either travels into space or who is

trained to travel into space.

Learning Outcome: Children learnt about the other heavenly bodies and
