At the most distant point in its orbit it is much farther from the sun even than Pluto. Is the comet moving faster when it is closer to Earth or closer to Pluto According to Kepler s Second Law objects that are closer to the sun orbit faster than objects that are far away. Therefore Halley s comet must be traveling much faster when it is near the Earth than when it is off near Pluto.
