How many hours are in a day on a comet?
It all depends upon the rotation of the comet, as the length of a 'day' is determined by the rate of rotation and the position from which it is measured on the comet itself as well as the current position of the comet in relation to the nearest 'sun'. There is no simple answer.
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.
What is the major difference between Comet Hyakutake and Halleys comet?
Halley's Comet was a periodic comet; it returns to the inner system every 76 years. Hale-Bopp is a very long-period comet; it may have been last seen in 2215 BC. That may have been Hale-Bopp's first approach to the Sun; its orbit was likely altered by close brushes with Jupiter then, and again during its last pass in 1997. Hale-Bopp's next appearance may be in or around the year 4530 AD.
Is halleys comet part of the solar system?
Yes. Halley's Comet is a comet that orbits our sun, and the definition of "Part of the solar system" is 'Any object that orbits our sun.'

What is a comet's rate of rotation?
A comet's rate of rotation can vary depending on its size and composition. Some comets can complete one rotation in a few hours, while others may take several days. Rotation rates are typically determined by observing changes in a comet's brightness as it rotates.
How far away is Halley's comet from the sun?
Halley's Comet is currently a little beyond the orbit of Neptune.
