Every seventy-six years the most famous comet in history makes
its journey around the Sun. This spectacular voyager identified by
Edmond Halley (rhymes with alley) in 1682 will enter the Earth s
orbit in November 1985 and will make its closest approach to Earth
in April 1986.
The New York Times Guide to the Retum of Halley s Cometwill help
us meet the comet in the most well-prepared, best-equipped fashion
possible. With a wealth of illustrations, including stunning state-of-
the-art outer space photographs, the book covers all aspects of the
comet: its schedule, its scientific history, its anatomy, where to see
it. The authors explain what equipment you will need to see it (less
than you think) and relate the rich mythology, Iorel and supersti-
tions that have accompanied the comet since it was first recorded
in 467 B.C.
The New York Times Guide to the Return of Halley s Comet will
prepare you for a once-in-a-lifetime event, but the knowledge and
excitement imparted by the book will serve you every time you look
into the heavens.
