520 | _a"In the late 17th century, the astronomer Edmund Halley provided the academic community of England with a little knowledge when he worked out, mathematically, that the comets visible over English skies in the years 1066, 1531, 1607, and again in 1682 were all appearances of the same celestial comet."
