Direct Detection of Extra-Solar Comets is Possible
Authors:

Comments: 17 pages, 4 figures, AJ, in press
The dust tails of comets similar to Hale-Bopp can scatter as much optical
light as does the Earth. Space-based observatories such as the Terrestrial
Planet Finder or Darwin that will detect extra-solar terrestrial planets also
will be able to detect extra-solar comets.
