Comets with a sufficiently high dust content in their nuclei can satisfy these conditions. For such comets, dusty plasma regions can form at altitudes of tens and hundreds of meters, where dust particles are present in a stable equilibrium state. It has been shown that the nonideality parameters of the dusty plasma system can reach and even exceed the critical value for the formation of a dusty plasma crystal. Moreover, the parameters of the dusty plasma system usually correspond to the formation of a bcc crystal lattice. Optical imaging techniques for dust particles, an extension of laboratory dusty plasma imaging techniques, could be used to observe dusty plasma crystals in future space missions. The possibility of forming the strongly coupled state and dusty plasma crystal near other celestial bodies has been discussed.
