Comet crosses ecliptic pole as seen from Earth
within a few days, it flies over the Earth high
above the ecliptic plane, at 0.42 AU distance.
Observe column 3 = latitude!

I remember the anticipation for this comet very well... but it turned out to be a bust because it was nearly destroyed during its close passage of the Sun.

Wiki covers it about as well as any other sources do...
