Like a dependable TV show guest star who pops in for one episode a season, Halley's Comet never fails to make a splash.
First being documented in 239 BCE, which our scientific correspondents confirm is "a very long time ago", HC's 75-year visitation cycle has sparked fear, celebration and curiosity on every occasion, as this lovely short poetically portrays.
Directed by Henry DeCosta for magazine Scientific American and described as "an ode to the comet and it's relationship to humanity", the part-documentary, part-love letter is backed by a lyrical VO and some cracking editorial choices.
