Typical Comets are objects that come from beyond Neptune, or from Pluto, get closer to the sun and then move away again, but the one that is in the news these days among astronomers is the giant Comet 29P /Schwassmann-Wachmann.
<p><br></p>
This Comet is neither approaching nor moving away, it orbits the sun at more or less the same distance, somewhat beyond the orbit of the planet Jupiter, the giant thing is serious because it is a true floating island whose nucleus is about 60 kilometers in diameter, so that we have a reference, the asteroid that put an end to the era of non-avian dinosaurs and giant reptiles, measured only about 12 kilometers in diameter.
<p><br></p>
I say objects because they are not space rocks like asteroids, Comets are formed mainly by different types of ice, they carry a lot of water ice, yes, but also other materials and gases and each gas thaws at different temperatures, this is important because Although it is so far away, the sun heats it up enough for part of its frozen gases to thaw explosively, it is what is known as cryovolcanoes or ice volcanoes.

This very active Comet suffers very violent explosions, and on April 2 an outburst was recorded that caused the Comet to multiply its brightness by 10, this comet has a conjunction with Jupiter every 50 years and that alters its orbit, in fact, its Current orbit is the product of the last meeting in 1975 and it is expected that in 2038, the date of the next conjunction with Jupiter, its orbit will suffer another alteration.
<p><br></p>
It does not pose a danger to the earth, but according to computer simulations, there is a 65% chance that this Comet will end up being captured by Jupiter in the next 10,000 years.
<p><br></p>

The rest of the possibilities are more conjectures, but in principle it is not a problem for us, but we must be careful with this comet, especially due to its cryo-volcanic activity, I hope that Jupiter ends up catching that giant comet and ends up turning it into a new moon.
