C/2024 G3 was thought to originate in the Oort cloud, an enormous cloud of rock and ice surrounding our solar system, with the comet taking about 160,000 years to orbit the sun. "This relatively ...
Comets that get this close to the Sun don’t normally come away looking the same. On approach to the Sun, the ice from the comet turns into water vapor, which acts like jets or thrusters. Comets are ...
At the heart of a comet, Dr Horner says, is a nucleus with something like a "dirty snowball" of ice, rock, and dust. And as it gets closer to the heat of the Sun, the ice heats up past the point ...
