Meteor shower orbit prediction

The Leonids are a prolific meteor shower associated with the comet Temple??Tuttle, which are also known for their spectacular meteor storms that occur about every 33 years. A shower was predicted in 1899, but it never happened as the stream had been directed more towards the sun than had been predicted. The drawings show the predicted streams for the comet shower every year and the orbits around the sun. Date: circa 1899
