It was observed at the next predicted apparition by Gérard Sause at the Observatoire de Haute Provence, France on 6 August 1976 with a brightness of magnitude 12. It was successfully observed in 1987 when J. Gibson of the Palomar Observatory, California, obtained images with the 1.5-meter reflector on 16 February. It appeared essentially stellar, with a faint magnitude of 19. It was observed again on 29 March 1997 by Carl W. Hergenrother at the F. L. Whipple Observatory, with perihelion on 1 May 1998.
68P came to opposition on 14 June 2019 and perihelion on November 9, 2019.[3]

Комета Клемола (68P/Klemola) — короткопериодическая комета из семейства Юпитера, которая была открыта 1 ноября 1965 года американским астрономом Арнольдом Клемола в Йельско-колумбийской южной обсерватории, Аргентина[7]. Обладает довольно коротким периодом обращения вокруг Солнца — всего чуть менее 11 лет.
