No, the comet's tail always points away from the sun. It has nothing to do with its direction of travel.

What is crosswind direction?

A crosswind is any wind that is not in the same direction as travel. The crosswind component is perpendicular to the direction of travel ( 90 degrees). Mathematically, the crosswind component is the speed times the sine of the angle relative to the direction of travel. For example if a plane travels NORTH and there is a crosswind from the EAST ( 90 degrees) at 20 mph the crosswind component is 20 mph ( 20 sin90 = 20) For another example if a plane travels NORTH and there is a crosswind from the NORTHEAST ( 45 degrees) at 20 mph the crosswind component is 14.1mph ( 20 sin45 = 14.1)
