   What happens when a comet moves close to the Sun?

   • As a comet moves close to the Sun, it heats up. The various frozen gases and molecules making up the comet change directly from solid ice to gas in a process called sublimation. This sublimation process releases dust particles trapped under the comet’s surface. The dust and released gas form a cloud around the comet called a coma.
