Will next appear in mid 2061. Halley's Comet will next appear in the year 2061. for more info click on the link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comet_Halley
tail
The coma of a comet is formed due to melting of the comet's nucleus by the Sun's energy. This creates a cloud of gas and dust that surrounds the nucleus and forms the visible atmosphere of the comet.
Halley's comet last appeared in 1986 - it's not due back in our part of space until 2062 ! Its orbit through our solar system takes about 76 years.
halleys comet will return in 2061.
Halley's Comet is unique because it is one of the most famous comets known to humanity due to its regular appearance every 75-76 years. It is also the only short-period comet that is visible to the naked eye from Earth and has been recorded by humans for over 2,000 years. Additionally, Halley's Comet contains a nucleus made of ice, dust, and rocky material that gradually vaporizes as it gets closer to the Sun, creating its iconic glowing tail.

Well, it might pass by something but it won't be earth. It isn't due back until 2061.
We expect the only Halley's Comet there is to return to the inner solar system in 2061. That means it'll get close enough to the sun so that we can see it, but we can't tell yet exactly how close to earth it's likely to get.

a comet gets a tail as it gets closer to the sun, due to solar winds.
