At early times many people believed that comets were fireballs sent from demon's or gods to destroy earth.

There was also a legend that every time a comet was seen a king would die.

Thats right. The English believed that Comet-seeing would bring them bad luck, and each king would die had they seen A Comet.

But um... I kinda lol @ them... Comets are harmless... Only comprised of Dust, Gas and the Head ( Nucleus)

That guy up there above me with the lol is VERY stupid. First of all theEnglish thought they were bad luck because everytime someone dies or something a comet passes by. And comet AREN'T harmless, they can be HARMFUL to us human in Earth, because a comet hit Jupiter and made a gas cloud as the size of Earth.
