Isn't there a comet that comes around every 76 years?
What's the name of it?

Hailey's Comet

Yeah, you're think of Halley's Comet.

The Hale-Bopp Comet is a different comet. It was visible for 18 months in 1996-1997. We won't see it again.

 

[SiGh]

Thanks guys, I thought Hale/Bopp was the same as Halley's.
