Astronomy - Comet - English Roundhand

"Comets are essentially cosmic icebergs composed of ice & dust with highly elliptical orbits around the Sun. As a comet approaches the Sun it begins to warm giving off dust & gas which glows from reflected light & ionization due to interacting with the solar wind & radiation.

I couldn't resist dressing up what would otherwise be a fairly boring word. The only creative opportunities are the cap and a terminal flourish. The C, being a simple character shape, can easily end up looking like some other character, such as an E, G, O or Q, if done too elaborately & without thought. One of the strong suits of English Roundhand are the limitless number of terminal flourish variations available. "
