That there is a comet Jeb. It's like an asteroid only different.

@Caerfinon I’m not sure that’s right bro, it looks like one of those ‘substance abuse’ aliens who’s so stoned he’s flying into the sun because he has the munchies and thinks it’s a Burger King sign. That vapour coming off the back is his smoke I think?

Comet trails point away from the sun because the plume is pushed by the solar wind.

There are two comet tails.

• The dust tail trails behind the comet in its orbit and is the curved one.
• The ionized gas tail points directly away from the Sun as it is pushed away by the solar wind.
