Halley's comet loses a bit of mass every time it makes a trip around the sun. Eventually, it will run out of volatiles (gasses) and become an almost invisible asteroid. There is the possibility that it might crash into something. While I don't believe its course intercepts any planets currently, the outgassing could change the course enough to cause Halley to crash into a planet.
In 1994, that fate befell Comet Shoemaker-Levy which fell dramatically into Jupiter.
Halley's comet visits every 75 to 76 years. The last visit was in 1986, but just like every thing in the solar system, its orbit is a little eccentric which means it can actually vary from anything up to 74 to 79 years. The medium is taken at 75 to 76, so the estimated time of the next visit is 2061 to 2062.
Halley's is due to return to the inner solar system some time in 2061. It's not possible
to predict yet how dazzling it will appear on that occasion, because we can't predict its
return precisely enough to know which side of the sun we'll be on at the time.
Comets that come near the Sun, like Halley's comet, only survive for a fairly short time (in astronomical terms) - perhaps a few tens of thousands of years.

Halleys Comet
All comets, we believe, are composed of a lot of ices such as frozen carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen, water, and other gasses, with a lot of dust and some rocks. Science fiction writers Jerry Pournelle and Larry Niven described a comet as a "dirty snowball".
No. in 1961 the comet was way out in the solar system, the recent close approaches were in 1910 and 1986 - non of there were as close as 10 miles from the nucleus, although Earth did pass through the comets tail in 1910.
There is Halley's comet, and a meteorite crater called Hoba Iron Meteorite. Does that help?
No. It's a comet.

Halleys Comet is a most pretty thing i have seen.
Neither. It's a comet that appears about every 75 years.
