TRIVIA BITS - HALLEY'S COMET

TRIVIA BITS - HALLEY'S COMET
Mark Twain was born in 1835 when Halley’s Comet appeared. He predicted that he would die when Halley’s Comet next returned to scare everyone – and he did! Superstitious people bought anti-comet pills at $US1 a box. The comet returned in 1986 with the next appearance predicted to be 2061.
