Comet C/1862 X1 (Bruhns) is an object with a trajectory through the solar system likely originating from the Oort Cloud. NASA JPL has not classified Bruhns as potentially hazardous because its orbit does not bring it close to Earth.
Bruhns orbits the sun every days ( years), coming as close as -0.00 AU and reaching as far as -32440.00 AU from the sun. Its orbit is highly elliptical.
Bruhns's orbit is AU from Earth's orbit at its closest point. This means that its orbit is very close to Earth's orbit.
The orbit of Bruhns brings it close to Jupiter's orbit.
Orbital simulations conducted by NASA JPL's CNEOS do not show any close approaches to Earth.
Bruhns's orbit is determined by observations dating back to Dec. 1, 1862. It was last officially observed on March 13, 1863. The IAU Minor Planet Center records 120 observations used to determine its orbit.
