What can a comet do?
Comets are basically huge, dirty snowballs that circle the sun in irregular, elliptical orbits. Some comets have fairly regular patterns of orbit such as Haley's. If a comet bisects the orbit of a planet or other solar body, it can cause massive damage. Remember, it was the Hale-Bopp comet that struck Jupiter fairly recently, and that punched holes in Jupiter's atmosphere that remained visible for weeks.

How long is Halley's comet's tail?
Right now, on March 20, 2011? There is none. The frozen core of Halley's Comet is drifting away from the Sun, and is out past the orbit of Neptune and slowing down. In about 10 years, Halley's Comet will reach aphelion (the farthest point in its orbit) and slowly begin to fall back inward. The comet probably won't develop any kind of tail until it gets in about to the orbit of Jupiter; that will be around 2055 or so.
The amount of time it takes for a comet to complete its orbit?
33 years.
How much time does it take for Jupiter to orbit earth?
Jupiter does not orbit the earth. It takes 11.86 years for Jupiter to orbit the sun.
What comet takes about 76 years to orbit?
