When is the next shooting star in 2012?

Shooting stars appear every night.


What is periodicity as it relates to comets?

A comet that takes the same time to make its orbit of the Sun. We can predict with a good degree of accuracy as to when we can see it again. Halley's Comet is the most famous, coming about every 75 or 76 years. It is not totally precise as it can vary, so we can only say about every 75 or 76 years.


What is the name of Earths next comet?

Aside from the regular short-period and dim comets, not noticed by the average person (such as Comet Encke or Comet Tuttle 1) the next comet we can be reasonably sure of seeing is good old Comet Halley, next scheduled to appear in July of 2061. But there will almost certainly be at least one or two large, bright comets visible on earth before then - we just don't know when they will be. Comets, even large, spectacular comets, are frequently just discovered about 4-9 months before they become a great display in the night sky. None meeting the criteria are in sight right now - but stay tuned.


When is the next visual comet?

No one knows. Comets are hard to see coming. They aren't visible until they come in past the orbits of the outer planets. We wouldn't get a lot of warning time, not that we could do very much to get out of the way or modify the orbit of the comet so it would miss us.


When is the next comet going to appear?

In mid-September 2011, the following comets are brighter than magnitude 12 as seen from Earth: -- P/2007 R5 SOHO -- C/2010 X1 Elenin -- 45P Honda-Mrkos-Pajdusakova -- C/2009 P1 Garradd

The third upon the next night when the last stroke of Twelve has ceased to vibrate.

Is there still an idea or information about comets asteroids or meteors that are still unresolved?

Much about what we think we know about comets is, at best, educated guesswork. We have sampled the tails of three comets, and all were different. We observed an impact into the nucleus of one comet. We believe that comets have a source in the "Oort Cloud", but no instrument currently exists that is sensitive enough to detect the Oort Cloud - so we have NO EVIDENCE that the "Oort Cloud" exists. It makes "sense"; comets have to come from SOMEPLACE, since no comet could have survived 4.5 billion years of close passes by the Sun. But the fact is that what we know about comets is like a bucket, and what we do NOT know about comets is like an ocean. And over the next 300 years, I predict that we will discover that at least half of what we "know" about comets will turn out to have been wrong.


When will the next commet hit the earth?
