What is the name of the comet that orbits the sun in your solar system?
Any comet visible from earth is in orbit around the sun. If the orbit is closed (elliptical), the comet will return after some period of time. If the orbit is open (parabolic or hyperbolic), the comet will escape the solar system and never return to the neighborhood.

What forces keep the comet in orbit around the sun?
