In the 1950s, American astronomer Fred Whipple suggested that comets are dirty snowballs: clumps of ice mixed with interplanetary dust. ... For most of its orbit, a comet remains far from the Sun, little more than the dirty snowball that it is -- what is usually called a bare nucleus. ... As Comet Hyakutake approached the Sun, jets of dust erupted from the Sun-facing side of its nucleus. ...
