It's still traveling in outer space...where else could it be? And hopefully the 3 Saturn Shaped UFO's that came with it, that I observed while on Earth have finished their mission. TRUE THAT!!

Halley's Comet is past the orbit of Neptune, and is approaching its aphelion, or "farthest distance from the Sun".

Comets travel quite slowly out there, and it will be many years before it reaches aphelion beyond the orbit of Pluto and starts its long fall back into the inner solar system. By the time it gets sunward of Jupiter's orbit, it will already be going very fast indeed, and will only take a couple of years for it to whip past the Sun and recede out past Jupiter's orbit again.

The Hale-Bopp comet is now beyond the orbit of Uranus but is expected to still be visible by large telescopes until about 2020. If you want to see Hale-Bopp without any telescope you have to wait until 4534 AD. :(
