Azerbaijan National Academy of Science

An interactive open lesson between Nakhchivan Department of ANAS and 192 general education schools of Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic dealt with small objects of the solar system.

The coordinator of Batabat Astrophysics Observatory, PhD in Physics and Mathematics Gulu Haziyev said that the planets and their satellites, asteroids and comets organize the solar system in a lesson on "Small bodies of the solar system."

The students were also informed that comets are known among the people as tail and fringe stars. Because when the comets approach the Sun, their "tails" reach millions of miles and appear in the ordinary. Therefore, comets are the only celestial bodies that can be observed among the smallest bodies in the Solar System.
