Abstract
ON the morning of May 19, at between 4 and 4.30 a.m. standard Indian time (5½ hours from Greenwich), the tail of Halley's comet could be seen stretching as far as the Milky Way near Sagittarius, if not beyond. The tail was much fainter than it had been two or three days previously, but was still quite distinct.
