Was Albert Einstein born and did he die the day hallies comet was seen?
No. Halley's Comet is visible for several days when it does appear- about every 75 years. But Einstein was born about 39 years after the visit of the comet- and died 31 years before it's return. However, Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) was born the year of the appearance of the comet, and was convinced he would die at its return.
Did the Hale-Bopp comet strike Jupiter when it was pulled apart by Jupiter's gravity?
