- Scientific American Comets have been observed for centuries, but the science behind them is still being studied. Scientific American has published a variety of articles, news, and videos related to comets, including recent discoveries and updates on comet exploration. These articles explore the evolution of our understanding of comet science, the potential impacts of comets on Earth, and the potential of comets as a potential source of resources. Additionally, some of the articles discuss the possibility of life on comets, as well as the potential of colonizing comets.
