Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 and Its Encounter with Jupiter

Description
Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 and Its Encounter with Jupiter
(b) Shown here are visible (left) and ultraviolet (right) images of Jupiter taken by the Hubble Space Telescope after three pieces of Comet
Shoemaker-Levy 9 struck the planet. Astronomers had expected white remnants (the color of condensing ammonia or water vapor); the darkness
of the impact sites may have come from carbon compounds in the comet debris. Note the aurorae in the ultraviolet image
