A comet is relatively small collection of dust and ice that orbits around our sun over varying periods of time. There are known to be several thousand. When a comet gets relatively close to the sun it warms and begins to release gases, which create what we see as a tail. Below we have images of these ethereal objects taken by our club members. Two notable comets that have paid us a visit in recent years were comet Tusuchinshan-ATLAS and Neowise. In addition, we have a gallery of other comets, also taken by our members.
