Comet 1886 S1 (Finlay) was discovered on 26.83 sept. 1886 by W.H.Finlay of the Royal Observatory, Cape Good Hope in South Africa with a 18-
On its discovery, the orbital period of comet 15P/Finlay was noted at 4.32 years. During June 1910, comet Finlay passed about 0.45 AU from Jupiter, which changed its orbital period from 6.54 to 6.69 years.
Encounters of comet 15P/Finlay include the following:
Close encounter with Jupiter in June, 1910, which increased the perihelion distance and changed the orbital period.
Close encounter with Jupiter in September, 1993, which decreased the perihelion distance from 1.09 AU to 1.04 AU
Close encounter with Jupiter in May, 2004, which decreased the perihelion distance from 1.03 AU to 0.97 AU.
