The living story
The story so far
Halley has kept every appointment for millennia, swinging past Earth roughly every 76 years like clockwork. Mark Twain was born with her arrival in 1835 and died with her return in 1910, and she still carries his parting blessing.
Happening now
The countdown to 2061 has begun, and Halley is polishing her tail for the approach. She has started sending advance word through the Wanderers, little dust-trails that spell out the date.
What may come
When she arrives, her coma may swell a million kilometers wide as she rounds the Sun. Some whisper she plans to finally stay — but her orbit is bound, and she always keeps her promises.

Whispers about Halley
“The Crab Pulsar's beam stuttered — once, for less than a blink. Every Wanderer navigating by it felt the hiccup. It has never happened before.”
The Lighthouse flickered
The Wanderers
Comets, meteors, asteroids — they owe allegiance to no court and carry messages between all of them. Their creed: arrive, burn bright, leave before they name a holiday after you.
