Avatar: The Last Airbender – The Promise

The events of The Promise Part 1 begin immediately after the last episode of the original series, "Avatar Aang", but after a few pages move forward one year later.

Aegospotami

This meteorite is believed to have been dislodged from a near-Earth orbit by the passing Halley's Comet.

Arthur Storer

The comet became known as Storer's Comet, until Edmund Halley later predicted the comet's return; thereafter this celestial marvel was known as Halley's Comet.

Biela's Comet

The comet appeared as predicted during its 1832 apparition, when it was first recovered by John Herschel on 24 September.

Brian G. Marsden and Zdeněk Sekanina attempted to calculate a likely orbit for any remaining parts of the comet; it was during a search using Marsden's calculations that Luboš Kohoutek discovered Comet Kohoutek.

Choke Canyon

Dr. David Lowell's (Collins) research is carried out in the canyon country of southern Utah and must be conducted at the same time Halley's Comet is passing over the earth.

Comet Hyakutake

It has been proposed that cometary collisions with Earth might have supplied a large proportion of the water in the oceans, but the high D/H ratio measured in Hyakutake and other comets such as Hale–Bopp and Halley's Comet have caused problems for this theory.

Debre Berhan

Historian Richard Pankhurst offers the date of 1456 for the date of the founding of this church, providing a plausible argument that the light in the sky was Halley's Comet, which could have been in Shewa that year, although the traditional dates (10th day of the month of Maggabit, i.e. 6 or 7 March) do not coincide with the days that the comet was most visible (13 through 17 June).

Dengeki Sentai Changeman

He manages to approach Earth undetected by hiding himself into the tail of Halley's Comet, but is ultimately destroyed by the Changemen after they ride Change Robo deep onto his body and destroy its core.

Diane Cary

She also starred in V and V: The Final Battle in the 1980s as Harmony Moore, a human who fell in love with the visitor, Willie (played by Robert Englund).

Eilmer of Malmesbury

Later scholars, such as the American historian of technology Lynn White, have attempted to estimate Eilmer's date of birth based on a quotation in William's Deeds in regard to Halley's Comet, which appeared in 1066.

Frehley's Comet

Tod Howarth – rhythm guitar, vocals, keyboards (1986-1988)

George Robert Carruthers

Later on in 1986, one of Carruthers' inventions captured an ultraviolet image of Halley's Comet.

Gunvalkyrie

It takes place in 1906 when the British Empire rules all of Earth and several extrasolar colony worlds, powered by technology brought to the planet by Halley's Comet.

Halley's Comet Opal

It is so named because it was unearthed in 1986, a year when Halley's Comet could be seen from Earth.

Jamie Oldaker

Not long after leaving Clapton's band, Oldaker briefly became a member of Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley's project, Frehley's Comet, appearing on the 1988 album Second Sighting.

Jesus: Kyōfu no Bio Monster

Halley's Comet has been approaching Mars for quite some time, and the nations of Earth send a mission to investigate the Comet, as some form of life has been detected inside the gas of the comet.

Johann Carion

Andreas Perlach in a work on the comet of 1531 questioned whether his methods were purely astrological or involved magic.

John Zarnecki

In 1981, he moved to the University of Kent in Canterbury and became the project manager for the Dust Impact Detection System on board the Giotto probe that visited Halley's Comet.

Liège Space Center

In the early 1980s, CSL participated in the development of the "Halley Multicolour Camera", which embarked aboard the spacecraft Giotto, photographed the nucleus of Halley's Comet in 1986.

Min Joon-ki

He wrote and directed Heaven's Soldiers (2005), in which Halley's Comet causes North and South Korean soldiers to travel back in time from 2005 to 1572, where they join Korean national hero Yi Sun-sin in fighting the Jurchen tribes.

Napoleon B. Broward

The race, expected to be an exciting showdown, proved to be such a bore that election news was pushed off the front page by coverage of Halley's Comet.

New College Lane

Just beyond to the east on the north side of the lane is a terraced house that was occupied by Edmund Halley, after whom Halley's Comet is named.

Southern Maryland

Arthur Storer, first astronomer in the American colonies and the original namesake for Halley's Comet, lived the latter part of his life in Calvert County.

St Clears

Nearby Trefenty House became the home of a branch of the Perrot family in the 16th century, and it was here that the amateur astronomer Sir William Lower and a neighbour, John Protheroe, set up one of Britain's first telescopes in 1609, which they used to study the craters of the Moon and Halley's Comet.

St George's Church, Millom

It was designed by Christine Boyce, inserted in 2000, and includes depictions of a bee orchid, a bloody cranesbill, Halley's Comet, and quotations from Nicholson's work.

Taiyo Sugiura

This was followed by his appearance in the 2003 Ultraman Cosmos vs. Ultraman Justice: The Final Battle.

Verlet integration

It was also used by Cowell and Crommelin in 1909 to compute the orbit of Halley's Comet, and by Carl Størmer in 1907 to study the motion of electrical particles in a magnetic field.

Wace

The Roman de Rou also includes a mention of the appearance of Halley's Comet.

Zara Yaqob

After witnessing a bright light in the sky (which most historians have identified as Halley's Comet, visible in Ethiopia in 1456), Zara Yaqob founded Debre Berhan and made it his capital for the remainder of his reign.
