Hale Bopp is a very special comet and astronmers learned a lot from it. They learned basic facts and always learned new facts.
The hale-bopp comet is so named for the two astronomers who spotted and confirmed it first. Hale and Bopp.
Astronomers can predict the return of comets like Hale-Bopp by using mathematical models that trace the comet's orbit based on its previous trajectory and gravitational interactions with other celestial bodies. By studying the comet's orbit, scientists can estimate when Hale-Bopp will make its next appearance near Earth.
Comet Hale-Bopp, which passed close to Earth in 1997, was discovered independently by astronomers Alan Hale and Thomas Bopp in July 1995. The comet was unusually bright and became one of the most widely observed comets of the 20th century.
Comets such as this are in long drawn out eccentric orbits around the sun. It is likely that this comet was once in a slow distant orbit around the sun, on the edge of our solar system around the orbit distance of Pluto, or further. It may then have been knocked into it's current orbit through a collision with another object.
I'm not sure but I know it was discovered by Alan Hale And Thomas Bopp in1995.

The period of Comet Hale-Bopp was determined by observing its repetitive pattern of appearance in the sky over time. By tracking its position relative to Earth as it orbits the Sun, astronomers were able to calculate the time it takes for Hale-Bopp to complete one full orbit, known as its period.

Comet Hale-Bopp was discovered on July, 23, 1995, independently by Alan Hale and Thomas Bopp, both from the United States.
No, Comet Hale-Bopp did not crash into Jupiter. Comet Hale-Bopp made a close approach to the Earth in 1997, but its trajectory did not intersect with Jupiter.
