In celestial mechanics, the eccentricity of an orbit can range from 0 to just below 1. An eccentricity of 0 indicates a perfectly circular orbit, while an eccentricity close to 1 indicates a highly elliptical orbit.
Since you mentioned that the new comet follows a highly elliptical orbit, the appropriate value for its eccentricity would likely be much closer to 1. Among the options given, 0.9200 would be the most reasonable choice for a highly elliptical orbit.
So, the correct response would be:
0.9200
