Is that all the question, and is there any answer choices?
A comet is a lump of rock and ice. Spacecraft have flown by comets. A comet only has a tail when it is near the sun. Most comets come from the Kuiper belt. A comet has actually been witnessed hitting a planet. Most comets have short orbital periods.
A comet is a tiny, frozen entity in the Solar System that heats up and starts to emit gases as it approaches the Sun. This process is known as outgassing. This results in an apparent atmosphere or coma, and occasionally a tail as well. These occurrences are caused by how the solar wind and solar radiation interact with the comet's nucleus.
The size of comet nuclei varies between a few hundred meters and tens of kilometers, and they are made up of loose clumps of ice, dust, and tiny rocky particles. A comet's orbit is typically very eccentric and elliptical, and its orbital period can range from a few years to possibly millions of years.

6. Reflecting telescope.
7. Astrolabe
8. Camera.
9. Radio telescope.
Explanation:
1. Galileo: he discovered details of a lunar surface.
2. Newton: he invented first reflecting telescope.
3. Kepler: he found planets had elliptical orbits.
4. Brahe: he performed a systematic mapping of sky.
5. Refracting telescope: uses a large glass lens.
6. Reflecting telescope: uses a mirror to focus light.
7. Astrolabe: tool used to determine location of a star.
8. Camera: instrument that accumulates light from an object to show more detail.
9. Radio telescope: records sounds of stars.
Hydrogen. That is how it is continuing to heat, the Hydrogen atoms are fusing to form Hydrogen, but at this point the majority is Hydrogen, eventually it will be majorly Helium, then Carbon.
