Comets - Frozen Wanderers

Today on Far Future Horizons we follow the odyssey of a comet as it sails from the outer reaches of our solar system.

The Oort Cloud and Kuiper Belt

We will watch as it evolves from a chunk of ice and rock into an active nucleus engulfed in a gaseous haze.

What we learn is a revelation; comets are even more mysterious than we imagined.
