Then, select a comet of your interest and watch its data, which includes rise, set, transit, altitude, azimuth, hour angle, ephemerides and the orbital elements used for the calculation.
Data is updated every 5 seconds.
An image (artist's concept) of a comet shows the position angle of the tail.
Length and brightness cannot be predicted with sufficient confidence.
