COMET KOHOUTEK ORBITAL DATA PERIOD DISTANCE DISTANCE HEIGHT AREA AREA SPEED TRAVELED TRAVELED (Miles per (Cm) (Miles) (Cm) (AU?) hour) (Cm) NOV24- DEC4 DEC4- DEC14 DEC14- DEC24 DEC24- SEE JAN3 NOTE JAN3- JAN13 JAN13- JAN23 JAN23- FEB2 SECTION #1 SECTION #2 SECTION #3 NOTE: Because of the curving orbit between Dec24 and Jan3 a single triangle cannot be accurately drawn. Divide that section of the orbit into three triangular sections and find the area of each section. Then add the three areas to get the total area in that time period
