BondAlbedo and Geometric Albedos from Rondon (2025) for the following comets:

  • 2P/Encke
  • 19P/Borrelly
  • 21P/Giacobini–Zinner
  • 46P/Wirtanen
  • 55P/Tempel–Tuttle
  • 96P/Machholz
  • 153P/Ikeya–Zhang

Additionally, rotation axes were also applied to the following comets using the same paper above (thanks @pedro-fixingstuff)

  • 55P/Tempel–Tuttle
  • 96P/Machholz
  • 153P/Ikeya–Zhang

A custom tail color is also implemented for 46P/Wirtanen as suggested by Issue #216 (thanks @SevenSpheres)
