Comets are bodies of ice and dust that enter the inner solar system from the outer solar system. As they approach the Sun, the ice boils, producing a coma around the nucleus and a tail behind it. Image dates are 16 June, 18 June, 21 June, 1 July, 5 July, 22 July, and 28 July. This comet was discovered on 15 November 1927.
