Comet Arend-roland

Comet Arend-Roland was a comet which appeared in 1957 and became very bright as it passed through the inner solar system. It was notable for the appearance after perihelion of a prominent antitail. It was travelling on a hyperbolic orbit, meaning it is travelling fast enough to escape from the solar system entirely.
