Comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner Rise and Set Times - Today
Today's Comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner rise, transit and set times from Piton Saint-Leu, Reunion are the following (all times relative to the local timezone Indian/Reunion):
RISE
Azimuth: 87.5°
TRANSIT
Max altitude: 66.3°
SET
Azimuth: 272.5°
The rise and set times are defined as the time at which the upper limb of Comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner touches the horizon, taking into account the effect of the atmospheric refraction. Since the atmosphere conditions cannot be modeled precisely, the times reported here should be considered correct with an approximation of a few minutes.
