No, the comet's tail always points away from the sun. It has nothing to do with its direction of travel.

How many Degrees Of Latitude north Or South Can You Travel?
90 degrees either way. At that point, you're at one of the geographic poles.HAHA
What type of current will a circuit that involves a battery and electrons traveling in one direction have?
a battery always produces a direct current.the electrons always travel from the negetiove to the positive terminal.But the direction of the current is the opposite that is from the positive to the negetive terminal.
How fast does a comet travel?
comets travel around 26 miles per second to 298 miles per second.
Where are comets found in solar system?
It has been suggested that comets originate in the Oort cloud and then travel in long elliptical orbits around the Sun.

What is crosswind direction?
A crosswind is any wind that is not in the same direction as travel. The crosswind component is perpendicular to the direction of travel ( 90 degrees). Mathematically, the crosswind component is the speed times the sine of the angle relative to the direction of travel. For example if a plane travels NORTH and there is a crosswind from the EAST ( 90 degrees) at 20 mph the crosswind component is 20 mph ( 20 sin90 = 20) For another example if a plane travels NORTH and there is a crosswind from the NORTHEAST ( 45 degrees) at 20 mph the crosswind component is 14.1mph ( 20 sin45 = 14.1)
What is the shape of all the orbits of comets?
