Which of the comets Borrelly Halley Hale-Bopp and Hyakutake is most likely in the Oort cloud?
Comet Hale-Bopp is the most likely candidate to originate from the Oort Cloud. It has a long orbital period, taking approximately 2,533 years to complete one orbit around the Sun, which is characteristic of comets from the Oort Cloud. In contrast, comets like Borrelly and Hyakutake have shorter orbital periods, indicating they are likely from the Kuiper Belt or are periodic comets.
What does the Deep Space One program do?
Deep Space One's mission target was to flyby an asteroid called 9969 Braille. This mission was only partially successfull so was extended to include further engineering testing along with an encounter with the comet Borrelly.
How many comets have been studied by spacecraft?
As of 2021, spacecraft have studied five comets up close: Halley's Comet (by the European Space Agency's Giotto spacecraft), Comet Borrelly (by NASA's Deep Space 1), Comet Wild 2 (by NASA's Stardust spacecraft), Comet Tempel 1 (by NASA's Deep Impact spacecraft), and Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko (by the European Space Agency's Rosetta spacecraft).
What is a coma of a comet?
A giant cloud of dust and evaporated gases surrounds the nucleus. The coma may be larger than the size of Jupiter. The fine dust particles reflect sunlight brightly and the gases both absorb and glow with energy. The coma gives a comet its bright, fuzzy appearance. The coma and tail form only when the comet gets close enough for the Sun to melt the nucleus.
When was Alphonse Borrelly born?
Alphonse Borrelly was born in 1842.
When did Alphonse Borrelly die?
Alphonse Borrelly died in 1926.

Has there been any space probes to any comets?
Yes. In 1998 NASA launched Deep Space 1. It was made to intercept the comet Borrelly, which it did in 2001. See the related link for more information and photos.
