Was a Finland-Swedish-born Russian astronomer and mathematician. In Russian he is known as Andrei Ivanovich Leksel (?????? ???????? ???????). His name is also given as Anders Johann Lexell or even Johann Anders Lexell.He emigrated to Russia in 1768. He studied the motions of comets. He computed the orbit of comet D/1770 L1 (Lexell) discovered on June 14, 1770, and it is named after him although it was discovered by Charles Messier. This comet made the closest known approach to Earth by any comet in history (although asteroids have come closer), making it the first known near-Earth object; the exact distance is not known but has been estimated to have been within 3 million km. Lexell showed that the comet had had a much larger perihelion distance until an encounter with Jupiter in 1767, and he predicted that, after encountering Jupiter again at an even closer distance two revolutions later, in 1779, it would be altogether expelled from the inner solar system.
