How do we know it takes 50,000 though? Who saw it 50,000 years ago and took note? 🤔
We measure its speed, direction, and distance from the sun and determine that it's orbit would take 50000 years
There's some assumptions being made in your calculations. I dont buy it.
weve been tracking these comets for years, its not like we just found it and within a day or 2 came up with calculations
