Comets.

My first encounter with a comet was back in 1986. The most famous comet of all, Halley, paid my front lawn a visit that year. My father got us out of bed in the early morning hours. What I saw was not very spectacular, but it did leave an impression in my mind. Since then, I have seen a number of faint-fuzzies in the sky, but none of them came close to the views of January and February 2007.
