asteroids are basically failed building blocks of a planet most are between Mars and Jupiter though they can wander. Meteors are pieces of space junk hitting the atmosphere and burning up on the way to the ground. Comets are general big balls of dirty ice orbiting the sun. There are thought to be 1000s in the Oort Cloud (past Pluto.). They can make spectacular runs around the sun.

Wow, yours are much better than mine. I kind of feel embarrassed now.

I did too, until I saw yours. Beautiful shots.
It looks like you were as fortunate as us to get a full view of Denali.

We didn't get nearly as close. We could only go in up to Savage River. It wasn't open any further than that point.

Actually the first picture I posted was from the train up to Denali. The second one was from the park.

I didn't take these obviously. But I think they're amazing. Supposedly a teenager took these in Hong Kong in the 50s: http://designyoutrust.com/2016/02/ho...by-a-teenager/
