Here’s a chart of the Leonard Comet Probe, along with a real-time location tracker
Senior research expert Greg Leonard first spotted the 19th-magnitude ‘spot’ on January 3, 2021 — but Comet Leonard has been around for the past 35,000 years, according to an “orbital calculation” cited in Orbital Calculations Always moving towards the sun. sky and telescope.
