Halley's Comet is a periodic comet that orbits the Sun approximately every 76 years. Its last perihelion, or closest approach to the Sun, occurred in 1986, and it is expected to return in 2061. The revolution of Halley's Comet around the Sun is influenced by gravitational interactions with other celestial bodies, which can slightly alter its orbital path and timing. It is one of the most famous comets due to its visibility from Earth and its historical appearances recorded by various civilizations.
