About NASAJPL Comets & Asteroids Group

This group is for all those star-gazers and photographers who love elusive flying rocks – better known as comets and asteroids. At NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, our spacecraft get up close and personal with comets and asteroids so we can learn more about how they form and where they travel. But we think they're pretty cool to look at, too.

Post your comet and asteroid photos, and we'll keep you updated on the latest scientific discoveries coming from NASA and JPL spacecraft studying these complex space rocks.

Coming up on Nov. 4: EPOXI's flyby encounter with Comet Hartley 2! Stay tuned to JPL's Asteroid Watch page for more about EPOXI and other comet and asteroid news.
