Cometary Science after Hale-Bopp Volume 2 Proceedings of IAU Colloquium 186 21–25 January 2002, Tenerife, Spain

Comet Hale-Bopp defines a milestone event for cometary science: it is the first "really big" comet observed with modern equipment on the ground and from space and due to that; it is considered the new reference object in cometary sciences. At the beginning of a new era in spacecraft explor...
