A Star with a Comet's Tail 08.15.2007 Science@NASA  August 15, 2007: Astronomers using a NASA space telescope, the Galaxy Evolution Explorer, have spotted an amazingly long comet-like tail behind a star streaking through space. The star, named Mira after the Latin word for "wonderful," has been a favorite of astronomers for about 400 years, yet this is the first time the tail has been seen. http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2007/15aug_mira.htm?list213022
