On one of its regular journeys through our solar system, Halley's Comet is at its most visible from Earth. This is the first appearance of Halley's Comet which is recorded in photographs. Mary Chapin Carpenter will write her 1990 song When Halley Came To Jackson about this appearance, and specifically about the fact that it was seen by young Eudora Welty who will later become a celebrated author. Other songs which reference Halley's Comet include Second Chance by Shinedown, Halley's Comet by Phish and Halley's Comet by Gathering Time.
