It is a large comet that orbits the sun once every 133 years.<\/strong> <strong>The discovery of this comet dates back to July 16, 1862, when Lewis Swift observed it using a small telescope.<\/strong> However, he initially mistook it for another comet and didn&#8217;t report it immediately. Three days later, <strong>Horace Tuttle independently spotted the comet<\/strong> from the Harvard Observatory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Background<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Initially, scientists believed the comet would return in 120 years, around 1982. <\/li><li>However, when the comet didn&#8217;t make an appearance in 1982, further calculations indicated a revised orbital period of about 130 years. <\/li><li>Brian Marsden published new orbital elements and predictions for the comet&#8217;s return in 1992.<\/li><li><strong>On September 26, 1992, amateur astronomer Tsuruhiko Kiuchi located the comet in the evening sky near the Big Dipper.<\/strong> Subsequent observations by others confirmed its presence.<\/li><li><strong>Further research and analysis led to the theory that historical comet sightings in the years 69 CE and 188 BCE were also sightings of this same comet, which helped confirm its identity as 109P\/Swift-Tuttle.<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The Perseids meteor shower occurs every year in August when Earth passes through the debris left behind by 109P\/Swift-Tuttle. The debris is made up of dust and small pebbles that were ejected from the comet&#8217;s nucleus when it was close to the sun.<\/p>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__list is-grid columns-3
