When have comets been spotted over the last 100 years?
Typically, several comets are spotted every year.
How has CGI developed over the years?
The most visible changes have been in the accuracy of the physics engines.
Where do long period comets cycling over 200 years come from?
Long period comets originate in the Oort Cloud.
What comet will pass over Trinidad?
Although sometimes not visible from parts of the planet, comets can be seen from very large geographical areas on Earth, not only from individual locations.
Which planet has a visible permanent hurricane?

Where do long Comet cycling over 200 years come from?
Long period comets originate in the Oort Cloud.
What is the history of comets?
They seem to be bits left over from the formation of the Solar System about 4.5 billion years ago.
Is there still an idea or information about comets asteroids or meteors that are still unresolved?
Much about what we think we know about comets is, at best, educated guesswork. We have sampled the tails of three comets, and all were different. We observed an impact into the nucleus of one comet. We believe that comets have a source in the "Oort Cloud", but no instrument currently exists that is sensitive enough to detect the Oort Cloud - so we have NO EVIDENCE that the "Oort Cloud" exists. It makes "sense"; comets have to come from SOMEPLACE, since no comet could have survived 4.5 billion years of close passes by the Sun. But the fact is that what we know about comets is like a bucket, and what we do NOT know about comets is like an ocean. And over the next 300 years, I predict that we will discover that at least half of what we "know" about comets will turn out to have been wrong.
What are some things about comets?

Comets are composed of ice and dusty and are present in space. There are over 5 thousand different known comets.
What comets were seen over the last 5 years?
Some comets that have appeared in the last 25 years are Hale-Bopp, Hyakutake, Shoemaker-Levy 9, Swift-Tuttle, and Tempel 1. C/2006 P1 McNaught was the brightest comet in the last 25 years.
