In Depth | 1P Halley – NASA Solar System Exploration Halley is often called the most famous comet because it marked the first time astronomers understood comets could be repeat visitors to our night skies Astronomers have now linked the comet's appearances to observations dating back more than 2,000 years
In Depth | Perseids – NASA Solar System Exploration The pieces of space debris that interact with our atmosphere to create the Perseids originate from comet 109P Swift-Tuttle Swift-Tuttle takes 133 years to orbit the Sun once
In Depth | 2P Encke – NASA Solar System Exploration Overview Comet 2P Encke is a small comet Its nucleus measures approximately 2 98 miles (4 8 kilometers) in diameter, which is about a third of the size of the object hypothesized to have led to the demise of the dinosaurs It takes 3 30 years for Enke to orbit the sun once
C 1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) - NASA Solar System Exploration Comet Hale-Bopp (C 1995 O1) was discovered on 23 July 1995 by two independent observers, Alan Hale (Cloudcroft, N M ) and Thomas Bopp (Stanfield, AZ), and is showing potential of putting on a spectacular display as it nears its 1997 perihelion
In Depth | Oumuamua – NASA Solar System Exploration No known asteroid or comet from our solar system varies so widely in brightness, with such a large ratio between length and width The most elongated objects we have seen to date are no more than three times longer than they are wide
Stardust | JPL | NASA On July 23, 1995, an unusually bright comet outside of Jupiter's orbit (7 15 AU!) was discovered independently by Alan Hale, New Mexico and Thomas Bopp, Arizona The new comet, designated C 1995 O1, is the farthest comet ever discovered by amateurs and appeared 1000 times brighter than Comet Halley did at the same distance
Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud - NASA Solar System Exploration Occasionally, giant molecular clouds, stars passing nearby, or tidal interactions with the Milky Way’s disc disturb the orbit of one of these bodies in the outer region of the Oort Cloud, causing the object to streak into the inner solar system as a so-called long-period comet
In Depth | 19P Borrelly – NASA Solar System Exploration With a shape resembling a chicken leg, the nucleus of comet 19P Borrelly is approximately 5 miles (8 kilometers) long The nucleus is inside a much larger cloud of gas and dust known as the "coma "
