22P/Kopff
Comet Kopff or 22P/Kopff is a Jupiter-family comet with a 6.36-year orbit around the Sun. Discovered on 23 August 1906, it was named after its discoverer, August Kopff. The comet was missed on its November 1912 return, but was recovered on June 1919 and has been seen at every apparition since. Close approaches to Jupiter in 1938 and 1943 decreased the perihelion distance and orbital period. 22P/Kopff’s last perihelion passage was 18 March 2022.

97P/Metcalf–Brewington
97P/Metcalf–Brewington is a periodic Jupiter-family comet originally discovered by Joel H. Metcalf in 1906 but subsequently lost. A new observation in 1991 by Howard J. Brewington was matched to the 1906 sighting; the orbit was computed and the comet was observed again on its returns to perihelion in 2001, 2011, and 2022.
