No. It's a comet.
There are scores of comets who's orbits have been determined, and are predicted to return, but the best known one is probably Comet Halley.

We don't know exactly. The person who recognized that it was the same comet appearing periodically every 76 years or so was Edmund Halley, but we don't know who was the first to ever see it.

Halley didn't exactly find the comet named after him; doing calculations on the basis of several observations, he calculated the orbit and predicted when the comet would return. This was confirmed - the comet returned - after his death.Halley didn't exactly find the comet named after him; doing calculations on the basis of several observations, he calculated the orbit and predicted when the comet would return.
