We don't yet know; nobody has discovered it yet. Actually, NASA scientists have seen at least two comets so far in 2010 that were first discovered as they fell into the Sun! Hopefully, we'll get a chance to see the next one.
The vast majority of comets have orbits that are not well known. Halley's Comet, with a period of only 76 years, is the classic example of a short-period comet. But most comets are "new" to us, not appearing anywhere in the historical records. Note, for example, that Comet Hale-Bopp, which was quite visible in 1997, had last visited the inner solar system 4,200 years before; perhaps the Babylonians or Sumerians noticed it, but none of their records mention it.
Hundreds of quasi-amateur astronomers spend their nights in their observatories, watching the skies, and we will know about the next comet as soon as the IAU receives their e-mail about it.
What else can I help you with?
Haley's comet is what kind of comet?
No. Comet brightness depends on the actual brightness, but also on the distance from the Sun. In 1986, Halley's Comet was not very bright, because it was far from Earth. The previous appearance in 1910 was distinctly brighter, but still wasn't even the brightest comet of the year; the "Great Daylight Comet of 1910" was visible during the day!
Was Halley's Comet in 1910 or 1911?
1911
When was the last time Halley's comet passed the earth?
Halley's comet has a period of 75.3 years. The last time it passed near the Earth was 1986. Before that was 1910, 1835 and so forth. The next visit will be on July 28th 2061 so start making plans.
When did the last Haley's Comet pass by?
Earth never passed through Halley's Comet. It has been seen from Earth on many occasions. This happens about every 75 or 76 years. The last time was in 1986 and the next time it is expected to be seen from Earth will be in 2061.Earth never passed through Halley's Comet. It has been seen from Earth on many occasions.

What is the distance from Earth to Halleys Comet?
Halleyâ??s Comet is a periodic comet and returns to earth at roughly every 75 years as predicted by Edmond Halley. Who happened to notice the pattern but was unable to see its return in 1758. In 1910 the comet was especially fantastic, having passed Earth by at about 13.9 million miles, and was photographed for the first time. The return of the comet in 1986 was met by a number of nationâ??s satellites. This fleet of spaceships is sometimes dubbed the "Halley Armada." But was only a spec on the horizon for most of the Earths telescopes as it passed on the other side of the sun opposite Earth at the time.
Was halleys comet 10 miles from the earth in 1961?
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.
When was Haileys comet seen in the 20th century?

What do Mark Twain And haly's Commet have in common?
It is believed that Mark Twain (aka Samuel Clemens) was born the same month as the passing of Halley's comet in November 1835. Halley's Comet passed on November 10th 1835 and Twain was born November 30th 1835. Twain vowed he would "go out"with the passing of the comet, as it passes in 75 year cycles. Halley's comet passed again April 20th 1910, Twain passed April 21st 1910.
Can a comets tail be hundreds of millions of kilometers long?
Sure. As a comet approaches the sun, the comet sheds some of its material, which trails behind it for millions of kilometers. It is this tail that is the most visible part of a comet. In fact, the word comet means "hairy star," referring to the long, streaming tail. In 1910, the earth actually passed through the tail of Halley's Comet.
What was the last year that's Haleys coment passed earth?
Halley's Comet passed earth in 1986. I should return in 2062.
