	C&MS: 8P/Tuttle
		Horace Parnell Tuttle (Harvard College Observatory, Cambridge, Massachusetts) discovered this comet on 1858 January 5.01.
		Charles W. Tuttle (Newburyport) used three positions obtained between January 5 and 13, and computed a parabolic orbit with a perihelion date of 1858 February 20.48 and a perihelion distance of 1.070 AU.
		He noted "so strong a resemblance to [the orbit] of the second comet of 1790, that there would seem to be small reason for doubt of the identity of the comet." Several other astronomers began to also suspect this identity.

		The comet that shed the Perseids was first observed scientifically in 1862 by two American astronomers, Lewis Swift of the Warner Observatory in Rochester, N.Y., and Horace Parnell Tuttle of the Harvard College Observatory in Cambridge, Mass., and as astronomical custom dictates, they gave the comet their names.
		The earliest record of the comet's meteor shower, however, appears as far back as 36 A.D. in the annals of China's Han Dynasty, and they were described again and again over the centuries in Asia and Europe.
		Later that year, however, Marsden refigured his numbers based on newfound records of the comet's many previous appearances and announced the relaxing news that Swift-Tuttle would pass a comfortable 15 million miles from Earth on that orbit.

		It was independently identified as a comet by French astronomer Wilhelm Leberecht Tempel in December 1865 and American astronomer Horace Parnell Tuttle in January 1866.
		Typical Leonid particles are only millimetres across, which means they burn up brightly in the Earth's upper atmosphere at about a height of 100,000 metres (60 miles).
