The Great Comet of 1997

A record of the 1997 passage of Comet C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp)

Edited by Nick James

We have brought together some of the best colour and black and white pictures of the comet taken by observers from around the world. A total of 16 high-quality photographs appear on four full-colour cover pages. Further black and white photographs illustrate articles written by leading comet observers. There is also a comprehensive 43 page summary of the comet's daily performance.
