Answer to Question 1

While both bodies are in motion, and thus noted as streaks on time exposure photos and CCD images, comets typically do not become visible until they approach the Sun and develop a coma, so their images are often fuzzy. Many amateur discoveries of comets depend on this fuzzy appearance in telescopes.

Answer to Question 2

FALSE
