Comets are known to travel in long, cigar-shaped paths around the Sun. Their orbits are often highly elliptical, bringing them close to the Sun at certain points and then taking them far out into the solar system. As they approach the Sun, the heat causes their ices to vaporize, creating a glowing coma and tail that can be seen from Earth.
