When have comets been spotted over the last hundred years?
Over the last hundred years, notable comets include Halley's Comet, which was last visible in 1986, and Comet Hale-Bopp, which captivated observers in 1997. Comet NEOWISE made a spectacular appearance in July 2020, and Comet Leonard was visible in December 2021. Additionally, Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko was extensively studied by the Rosetta mission, which provided significant insights into comets from 2014 to 2016.
What comets were seen over the last 5 years?
Some notable comets observed in the last 5 years include NEOWISE (C/2020 F3) in 2020, Comet Lovejoy (C/2014 Q2) in 2014, and Comet Pan-STARRS (C/2017 T2) in 2017. These comets were visible to the naked eye and generated public interest due to their brightness.
how often do comets come near the sun?
It's almost impossible to give a definitive answer. Some comets only have short orbital periods (less than 300 years), while others have been calculated to take thousands of years to return close to the Earth ! As an example, Halley's comet returns roughly every 76 years (last time was in 1986, the next time will be around 2062). At the other end of the scale, comet McNaught is estimated to take around 92,000 years to travel once around the sun !
Where do short-period comets originate?
Short-period comets originate from the Kuiper Belt, a region beyond Neptune filled with icy debris, or from the scattered disk, which is a distant region beyond the Kuiper Belt. These comets have orbits that last less than 200 years and are affected by the gravity of the outer planets.
How many years does it take for Halley's comet to come to Earth and when is it next due to pass?
There are comets visible from Earth many nights, they are just too faint to be seen easily. So, there is a continuum of brightness -- comets from very faint to quite bright. The brightest are the spectacular ones that get in the news. Also, bright ones may be discovered not long before they are visible. If I remember correctly, McNaught, of January/February 2007, the second brightest comet since 1935, was discovered about 6 months before it came close.

When was the loch ness monster spotted?
The Loch Ness Monster has been spotted many times over the last 200 years. Whether these have been genuine sightings, optical illusions or mis-interpretations of something floating semi-submerged, is a matter of sometimes heated discussion. There have been a few genuine scientific surveys using sonar equipment but there has been no unequivocal proof, one way or the other.
