Tailed celestial body (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

comet

'tailed celestial body' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for comet that I've seen before include "Celestial orbiter" , "Heavenly body with a fiery tail" , "Tailed space traveller" , "Halley's phenomenon in space" , "Halley's space traveller?" .)

I've seen this clue in the L.A. Times Daily, The Star Tribune, The Washington Post and the USA Today.
