Optical image of Halley's Comet
False-colour optical image of Halley's Comet. The image is a computer-processed version of a black & white plate taken in 1910 at the Lowell Observatory. The colours represent varying levels of brightness across the image. Named after Edmund Halley (1656-1742),who first recognised its periodicity,the comet has been recorded every 76 years since 240 BC. It consists of a potato- shaped nucleus of ice & dust. Its tail is formed as the comet is heated when it approaches the Sun. Dust & gas are released and swept into a tail both by radiation pressure and by the solar wind
