Oh, dude, predicting comet appearances is like trying to predict the weather in space - it's all over the place. But hey, we might catch a glimpse of Comet Halley in 2061 if we're lucky. So, keep your eyes peeled to the sky, and who knows, maybe a comet will photobomb your stargazing selfie before 2100.
It is challenging to predict which comets will be visible from Earth by 2100, as new comets are discovered regularly. However, some of the periodic comets that are expected to return within this timeframe include Comet Halley (2061), Comet Hale-Bopp (c. 4385), and Comet Swift-Tuttle (2126).
Comets. The Oort Cloud is a vast region of space beyond the orbits of Pluto and the other outer planets where many comets are believed to originate. These icy objects can be pushed into the inner solar system by gravitational forces and become visible as comets when they approach the Sun.
Some other examples of comets include Comet Halley, Comet Hale-Bopp, and Comet Hyakutake. These comets are known for their brightness, size, and visibility from Earth.
From Wikipedia: "Halley's Comet ... is visible from Earth every 75 to 76 years. ... Halley's Comet last appeared in the inner Solar System in 1986 and will next appear in mid-2061." You will be able to see other comets, though.
Yes, Earth can be seen at night without a telescope. It is visible from space station and other spacecraft. However, it is not visible to the naked eye from the surface of the Earth at night.

A meteorode is a small particle of debris within our solar system. When the meteoroid enters our atmosphere is becomes a meteor. If it then lands on the earth it becomes a meteorite. Comets on the other hand are larger and are associated with a visible tail.
Near-Earth Objects. Comets, meteors, and other things in space that are near Earth.
The other planets, stars, galaxies, meteors, comets, and asteroids.

Comets orbit the Sun, the Earth orbits the Sun. Thus both the comet and the Earth are in motion one relative to the other and thus the position a the comet relative to the earth is constantly changing.

Planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and dust particles are examples of objects in space that reflect light. These objects reflect light either from the Sun or from other nearby sources, making them visible to observers on Earth or with telescopes in space.

Unlikely. There are no periodic comets known that will revisit the inner solar system in 2061. And that's 52 years from now; it's impossible to know when a new comet will appear. So the chance is vanishingly small that a comet will strike the Earth in 2061. On the other hand, comets or comet-like asteroids have struck the Earth before, so the possibility exists. But hopefully by then, we'll have the technology to detect such a comet far enough from Earth and be able to deflect it - or capture it. It would be nice to have a second Moon.
Water is not produced. It is believed that all of the water on earth came from comets and other blocks of ice landing on earth from the solar system.
There are comets visible all the time, but they are generally so small or so distant that few people other than amateur comet watchers ever see them. When will the next big, impressive comet be visible? Nobody knows; that's why hundreds of comet watchers spend their nights in home observatories looking for new comets. Guessing how impressive a comet is going to be from early observations is also difficult, because one never knows the exact composition of a comet. Every one is different, and they all have surprises.
