5D/Brorsen

5D/Brorsen (also known as Brorsens comet or comet Brorsen ) is a comet, which was discovered by the Danish astronomer Theodor Brorsen on 26 February 1856. The orbital period is about 5.5 years. 1851 came to the comet at 1.5 AU closer to the earth. The orbit of the comet was still wavering, strengthened by the fact that the planet Jupiter in 1854 he approached. 5D/Brorsen was followed until June 1857, and the web is now well known. The comet is currently considered lost.
