SOLAR SYSTEM

Detailed explanation-1: -A comet’s dust tail is the trail of dust and gas illuminated by the Sun. It is blown away from the comet’s coma by the solar wind, and follows the curve of the comet’s orbit. When comets are traveling through the outer solar system, they are frozen and do not have tails.

Detailed explanation-2: -Comet Tails Gases escaping from the comet are ionized by the ultraviolet photons from the Sun. Once they are ionized, the solar wind carries them straight outward away from the Sun. These gases form the plasma tail.
