[img class=hero-image [Comet Image]]
A comet is a ball of mostly ice that moves around in outer space. Comets are often described as "dirty snowballs". They are very different from [[asteroids|Asteroid]]. The orbital inclinations of comets are usually high and not near the ecliptic where most [[solar system|Solar System]] objects are found. Most of them are long-period comets and come from the [[Kuiper belt]]. That is very far away from the [[Sun]], but some of them also come near enough to [[Earth]] for us to see at night.
They have long "tails", because the [[Sun]] melts the ice. A comet's tail does not trail behind it, but points directly away from the [[Sun]], because it is blown by the solar wind. The hard centre of the comet is the nucleus. It is one of the blackest things (lowest albedo) in the [[solar system|Solar System]]. When light shone on the nucleus of Halley's Comet, the comet reflected only 4% of the light back to us.
Periodic comets visit again and again. Non-periodic or single-apparition comets visit only once.
Comets sometimes break up, as Comet Biela did in the 19th century. Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 broke up, and the pieces hit [[Jupiter]] in 1994. Some comets orbit (go around) together in groups. Astronomers think these comets are broken pieces that used to be one object.
