When Does Comet 8P/Tuttle Rise and Set from McMurdo Station, Queen Maud Land?
Comet 8P/Tuttle is circumpolar and transits at 17:08 UTC (altitude: 31.6°)
The rise and set times are defined as the time at which the upper limb of Comet 8P/Tuttle 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.
