29P/Schwassmann–Wachmann
Comet 29P/Schwassmann–Wachmann, also known as Schwassmann – Wachmann 1, was discovered on November 15, 1927, by Arnold Schwassmann and Arno Arthur Wachmann at the Hamburg Observatory in Bergedorf, Germany.
It was discovered photographically, when the comet was in outburst and the magnitude was about 13.
Precovery images of the comet from March 4, 1902, were found in 1931 and showed the comet at 12th magnitude.
The comet is unusual in that while normally hovering at around 16th magnitude, it suddenly undergoes an outburst.
This causes the comet to brighten by 1 to 5 magnitudes.
This happens with a frequency of 7.3 outbursts per year, fading within a week or two.
The magnitude of the comet has been known to vary from 18th magnitude to 10th magnitude, a more than thousand- fold increase in brightness, during its brightest outbursts.
Outbursts are very sudden, rising to maximum in about 2 hours, which is indicative of their cryovolcanic origin; and with the times of outburst modulated by an underlying 57- day periodicity possibly suggesting that its large nucleus is an extremely slow rotator.
The comet is a member of a relatively new class of objects called" Centaurs", of which at least 400 are known.
These are small icy bodies with orbits between those of Jupiter and Neptune.
Astronomers believe that Centaurs have been recently perturbed inward from the Kuiper belt, a disk of Trans- Neptunian Objects occupying a region extending from the orbit of Neptune to approximately 50 AU from the Sun. Frequent perturbations by Jupiter will likely accumulate and cause the comet to migrate either inward or outward by the year 4000.
The dust and gas comprising the comet's nucleus is part of the same primordial materials from which the Sun and planets were formed billions of years ago.
The complex carbon- rich molecules they contain may have provided some of the raw materials from which life originated on Earth.
The comet nucleus is estimated to be in diameter.
29 P reached perihelion on March 7, 2019 and opposition on October 9, 2019.

5D/Brorsen
5D/Brorsen (also known as Brorsen's Comet or Comet Brorsen) was a periodic Jupiter-family comet discovered February 26, 1846, by the Danish astronomer Theodor Brorsen.
The perihelion of 5D/Brorsen was February 25, just a day before its discovery, and maintained the approach to Earth after that, passing closest to Earth on March 27 (at a distance of 0.52 AU).
As a result of this close encounter to Earth the comet's coma diameter increased.
Johann Friedrich Julius Schmidt estimated it as 3 to 4 arcmin across on March 9, and 8 to 10 arcmin across on the 22nd of that same month.
Last seen on April 22, it was stationed about 20 degrees from the north celestial pole.
By the end of this first apparition the orbital period was identified as 5.5 years.
It was discovered that a close approach to Jupiter in 1842 put in its discovery orbit.
The comet's 5.5-year period would mean that apparitions would alternate between good and poor.
As expected, the comet was missed in its 1851 apparition, when it only came as close as 1.5 AU to Earth.
The comet's orbit was still relatively uncertain, made worse by its approach to Jupiter in 1854.
Karl Christian Bruhns found a comet on 18 March 1857.
Soon an orbit was computed and it was found to be 5D/Brorsen, although predictions were three months off.
The comet was followed until June 1857, and the orbit was then well known.
The comet was missed in 1862, and the next recovery was in 1868.
A close approach to Jupiter shortened the period enough to make the comet visible in 1873.
A very favorable apparition followed in 1879, allowing the comet to be observed for the longest time to date – four months.
The comet was missed in 1884, due to observing circumstances, but was also missed in 1890, a favorable apparition.
The next favorable apparition occurred in 1901, but searches did not locate the comet.
The next serious search was started by Brian G. Marsden, who believed the comet had faded out of existence, but computed the orbit for a very favorable 1973 apparition.
Japanese observers made intensive searches for the comet, but nothing turned up.
The comet is currently considered lost (see lost comet).
Maigret and the Man on the Boulevard
Maigret and the Man on the Boulevard( French:" Maigret et l'homme du banc", also published in English as" Maigret and the Man on the Bench" and" The Man on the Boulevard") is a detective novel by the Belgian writer Georges Simenon.
The Man on the Balcony (film)
The Man on the Balcony is a 1993 Swedish- German crime thriller film, based on the book" The Man on the Balcony" written by Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö.
This is the fourth film which stars Gösta Ekman as Martin Beck and Rolf Lassgård as Gunvald Larsson.
" Mannen på balkongen" has been considered as the best ever Martin Beck film starring Gösta Ekman, and Gösta Ekman became highly popular and regarded for his brilliant portrayal of Martin Beck in this picture by his fans.
His fine performance also attracted several new fans to his side, and" The Man on the Balcony" was one of the most successful films in Sweden in the year of 1993.
