Comet Hale-Bopp defines a milestone event for cometary science:
it is the first "really big" comet observed with modern equipment
on the ground and from space and due to that; it is considered the
new reference object in cometary sciences.
At the beginning of a new era in spacecraft exploration of
comets and five years after Hale-Bopp's perihelion passage these
proceedings of invited and contributed papers for IAU Colloquium
186 "Cometary Science after Hale-Bopp" review the state-of-the-art
knowledge on comets, the icy, dusty and most primordial left-overs
of the formation disk of our own solar system.
