Comet

by karthikpandian19 » Tue Jan 10, 2012 8:18 pm
In its most recent approach, the comet Crommelin passed the Earth at about the same distance and in about the same position, some 25 degrees above the horizon, that Halley's comet will pass the next time it appears.
as Halley's comet will do
as will Halley's comet
that Halley's comet is to be passing
as Halley's comet
that Halley's comet will pass

IMO B.

The crommelin passed the earth at X as will Y the next time it appears. This is the structure of the sentence.

B is concise and better than A.
C/E - usage of that distorts the meaning - wrong
D - verb is missing
