Scientific paper

At the IAU Colloquium No. 168 "Cometary nuclei in space and time" every field in cometary physics, many important achievements, and future space investigation plans were presented, especially, the newly research fruit about Comet Hale-Bopp. It is expected that, the most important development in cometary physics will come from space study. The understanding of many physical processes which happened in comets and their environments, the understanding of the origins and relationship of the three main cometary reservoirs: Oort cloud, Kuiper belt and scattered comet disk are given. How Chinese astronomers take a part in the research work in the world is also discussed.
