situation I: They fly until get caught by gravity from another planet and then get burned up entering the atmosphere or crash on the planet.

situation II: They fly until they approach a star and over time get burned up. What's left is decent sized rocks.

Comets travel in elongated orbits around the Sun, often coming from the outer regions of the solar system. As a comet approaches the Sun, it heats up and begins to release gas and dust, creating a glowing coma and a tail that points away from the Sun due to solar wind. After their close approach to the Sun, comets head back towards the outer solar system.

Comets do not fly; they fall. Comets orbit the sun billions of miles from the Sun, in the cold dark far reaches of the Solar System.

Slowly, over decades or centuries, a comet will fall toward the sun, slowly warming in the light and heat of the star. At some point, the warmth of the sun will begin to melt the frozen gasses and the comet will begin to grow a "tail", a stream of gas reflecting the Sun's light.

The comet, falling faster and faster toward the sun, then whips around the sun propelled by gravity and continue to fall back into space.

The comet travels in space and 12km past the moon.
