Comets generally travel at an average speed of 2 million kilometers
per hour. Though compairing it to the solar system, let alone the u
niverse, that is nothing. Though that would be an average speed.
All through the course of the comet's path, speed tends to alter f
om perihelion and aphelion. As the comet's trajectory reaches per
ihelion, it tends to slow down, decreasing in over-all velocity. Sw
inging around the sun would mean that the comet's speed would i
ncrease; Easy Darwin's laws of motion. Objects closer to the sun
tend to go faster than objects farther away. Thus the average sp
eed of Comet's.
