Coma

Real World Example

Imagine trying to see through a fogged-up bathroom mirror after a hot shower. Just as the steam and condensation blur your reflection, making everything seem fuzzy and unclear, the coma of a comet creates a similar effect in space. The coma, made of ice and comet dust, surrounds the comet's nucleus like the condensed steam on the mirror, obscuring the solid core and giving it a blurred, fuzzy appearance.
