It consists of a nucleus of ice & dust, shaped like an elongated potato. Its tail is formed as the comet is heated when it approaches the Sun. Dust & gas are released and swept into a tail both by radiation pressure and by the solar wind.

In 1687, Sir Isaac Newton published his Principia, in which he outlined his laws of gravity and motion. His work on comets was decidedly incomplete. Edmund Halley asked to see his calculations and was told by Newton that he could not find them, but promised to redo them and send them on later, which he eventually did, in a short treatise entitled 'On the motion of bodies in an orbit'. Halley recognised the importance of the work and returned to Cambridge to arrange its publication with Newton, who instead went on to expand it into his Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica published at Halley's expense in 1687. Newton's Principia formulated the laws of motion and universal gravitation, which dominated scientists' view of the physic...
