alley's Comet returned to' earth in late 1985 and early 1986 for the first time since 1910. This comet was named for the famed English Astronomer, Ed- mund Halley. Halley's spec- tacle was Hrst observed by the ancient Egyptians in 240 B.C. The comet orbits, on average, every seventy- seven years. Few people have been able to live to see the coming and going ofthe comet, more than once. Mark Twain was fortunate enough to be born in the comet year, and predicted his own death in 1910 simultaneous to Halley's next arrival. Maybe one of us will be fortunate to be alive long enough to see it twice. n seventy-seven seconds, a sudden burst of white and yellow Hre, trails out to form a twisted Y in the sky.
