Astronomers have since calculated the period of Comet C/1811 F1, also known as the "Great Comet of 1811" or sometimes "Napoleon's Comet" in honor of his military conquests, to have a period of 3065 years.

So, our distant descendants might expect it to return in the year 4876AD, assuming that in the year 2650 they don't send out a collector ship to bring it home and mine it to give the Moon an atmosphere. By then, we'll probably be able to do that. And we'll want the space. Just imagine the lunar Golf courses! :-)
