Halley's Comet last appeared in the inner Solar System in 1986. It can be seen every 75-76 years, so will next appear in mid 2061. :)

I Saw Halleys Comet In 2002 When I Was At A Friends Wedding sorry but what you saw wasn't Halley's comet. The last sighting of Halley's Comet was in 1986

Halley's Comet or Comet Halley (officially designated 1P/Halley) is the most famous of theperiodic comets and can currently be seen every 75--76 years. Halley's Comet last appeared in the inner Solar System in 1986, and will next appear in mid-2061.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Halley's Comet, officially designated 1P/Halley and also referred to as Comet Halley after Edmond Halley, is a comet that can be seen every 75-76 years. Halley's Comet last appeared in the inner Solar System in 1986, and will next appear in mid 2061.

Halley's comet has a period of 75 -> 76 Years. It was last observed in 1986 and is predicted to return to perihelion on July 28th, 2061.

Halley's comet passes by Earth every 75-76 years. Since the last sighting of the comet was 1986, the next time the comet will be seen won't be until 2061 or 2062.

1986. Halley's comet appears about every 76 years.

Halley's comet occurs ever 75->76 years. It last was seen from Earth in 1986 so astronomers predict that it will be seen again in the year of 2061.

You can expect Halley's Comet to be visible again around 2061. Halley's comet was last seen from Earth in 1986.

Halley's Comet made its last pass near the Earth in 1986, and will re-appear in 2061.

From Wikipedia: The first person to visually observe comet Halley on its 1986 return was amateur astronomer Stephen James O'Meara on January 24, 1985. O'Meara used a home-built 24" telescope on top of Mauna Kea to detect the magnitude 19.6 comet. As for the naked eye observing, it was Stephen Edberg (then serving as the Coordinator for Amateur Observations at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory) and Charles Morris who were the first to observe Comet Halley with the naked eye in its 1986 apparition.

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.

The name of the comet seen in 1986 is Halley's Comet. You can see it every 75-76 years, and is the only short period comet that is clearly visible to the naked eye from earth, and thus the only naked-eye comet that might appear twice in a human lifetime.

It last appeared in 1986 and will appear again in 2061.

Halley's comet appeared twice in the 20th century. Once in 1910 and in 1986. Halley's comet is due again in 2062.

Halley's Comet was last seen in 1986 and before that it was last seen in 1910.

Halley's Comet has never been 10 miles above Earth. It is always millions of miles from us, even when closest to us. It was last visible from Earth in 1986. It will next be visible in 2061.

Halley's comet last appeared in the inner Solar System in 1986 and will next appear to the naked eye in late 2060, with an expected perihelion (when it is closest to the Sun) around July 28, 2061.

Halley's Comet or Comet Halley is visible from Earth every 75 to 76 years. It last appeared in the inner Solar System in 1986 and will next appear in mid-2061.

Every 76 years or so. The last known sighting was in 1986, the next in 2061 or 2062.
