Time keeping is one of the most essential part of our modern daily lifestyle.

In the present day we use modern digital or analogue watches to keep the time records.

But in the ancient times the astronomers calculated the time by using different astronomical references.

Comet is one of those references, because comets generally appear at a particular time interval which helps astronomers to calculate the time or calendar.
