JUPITER IMPACT? On July 19th, a veteran observer of Jupiter in Australia
photographed a fresh dark "scar" in Jupiter's cloudtops; the feature
resembles the Shoemaker-Levy 9 impacts of 1994. It is possible that Jupiter
has been struck anew by an asteroid or comet. Astrophotographers around the
world should train their optics on Jupiter to confirm the event and monitor
its progress. Visit http://spaceweather.com for photos and updates.
