उत्तर १

Comets are cosmic snowballs of frozen gases, rock, and dust that orbit the sun. The dust and gases form a tail that stretches away from the sun for millions of miles. The poet describes the comet that travels at a great speed. He says that it is faster than a cheetah and stronger than a mountain. He imagines that the comet is very large in size and it can shake the earth if it comes very close to it.

He thinks that the shake can cause shockwaves and can result in an earthquake. The comets leave behind the chemicals in the form of dust. The poet says that life could have started then on the earth. He also affirms that it might have resulted in mankind. However, the poet is not very sure whether this is true or not. But he admires that there can be no better spectacle than a comet in full flight.
“Amidst all dangers, a comet is spectacular”.

उत्तर २

A comet is a ball of mostly ice that moves around in outer space. It travels at great speed on its way. The comet is big in size and very powerful and strong. If the comet comes very close to the earth, the atmosphere will shake. The shockwave reaches the ground.

It certainly causes the land to quake. The comet leaves behind the chemicals in the form of dust. Then life started on the earth. And it resulted in mankind. The poet is not sure if this is true or not. But he is confident that there is no better spectacular scene than a comet in full flight.
