Hayley's Comet does not orbit the Earth. It has a long elliptical orbit around the Sun, and gets as far out as the orbits of Neptune and Pluto (35.1 AU) , only to return to the inner solar system every 75-76 years. (Its orbit is perturbed by some planets.) It last reached perihelion (closest to the Sun) in 1986, and it will not return until 2061.
What else can I help you with?
How long does in take for haileys comet take to orbit the earth?
Halley's Comet orbits the sun, not the earth, roughly every 76 years.
What comet takes about 76 years to orbit?
Halley's Comet has an orbital period of about 76 years. It is one of the most famous comets and can be seen from Earth approximately every 76 years.
What is the name of the comet that orbits the sun in your solar system?
Any comet visible from earth is in orbit around the sun. If the orbit is closed (elliptical), the comet will return after some period of time. If the orbit is open (parabolic or hyperbolic), the comet will escape the solar system and never return to the neighborhood.
Is Halley's comet a satelitte for earth?
No, Halley's Comet is not a satellite of Earth. It is a periodic comet that orbits the Sun, taking about 76 years to complete one orbit. While it can come relatively close to Earth during its approach, it is an independent celestial body and not gravitationally bound to our planet.
When is Haily's comet passing over?
It will be back again in 2061. The 1986 flyby was a bit of a disappointment. Comet Kohoutek in 1973 was much better, but it won't be back for another 75,000 years.
How long does in take for haileys comet take to orbit the earth?
Halley's Comet orbits the sun, not the earth, roughly every 76 years.
How many earth years does it take a comet to orbit?
Halley's Comet takes 73.5 years to orbit the sun but every comet is different just like planets.
Does Halley's comet pass by the earth every year in its orbit through our solar system?
Haley's Comet is visible from Earth every 75 to 76 years. The Comet's orbit takes 75 to 76 years to complete, so it only passes by the earth once every 75-76 years.
Hayleys comet name?
Named after Edmund Halley, who recognized that the three different comets seen was actually the same comet returning every 75 to 76 years.

What did Edmund Halley invent?
Edmund Halley did not invent anything, but he was a British astronomer known for calculating the orbit of the comet that now bears his name. Halley's Comet, which passes by Earth approximately every 75-76 years, was the first comet to be recognized as periodic.
