Comets such as Halley' Comet are small bodies of rock and ice which are in a highly eccentric orbits around the sun. They spend most of their time slowly orbiting the sun, far out beyond the outer planets. Their orbit eventually comes close to the sun, where the surface is heated and gives the comet its tails - they become much more visible. Halley's comet orbits the sun once every 75 years, so its only visible during this brief phase when it is close to the sun (and Earth).
Every 76 years or so. The last known sighting was in 1986, the next in 2061 or 2062.
Halley's Comet has an orbital period of about 76 years. It is one of the most famous comets and can be seen from Earth approximately every 76 years.
i think it comes past the earth every 76 years.

Yes, on average about every 76 years. But it has, in the past, varied from 75-79 years between appearances. The last one was in 1986. The next will be in 2062.
every 76 years
About once every 76 years.
Yes.
Every 76 years or so. The last known sighting was in 1986, the next in 2061 or 2062.
Because that's how gravity works. Halley's comet has a "year" of about 76 Earth years, so it shows up every 76 Earth years.
No galaxy returns every 76 years. Halley's Comet, which is a comet, not a galaxy, becomes visible every 76 years.
Halley's comet appears after every 76 years.
Halley's comet is visible approximately every 76 years.
That is Halley's comet, named after English astronomer Edmond Halley,
