Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9/Jupiter collision. Colour image made by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) of the large impact site of Fragment G of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9. The impact occurred at 07.28 GMT on 18 July 1994. The impact site (or 'splash') is seen here as the complex dark circular feature just below centre. The impact site is a dark brown spot, around which are two crescent-shaped arcs. The lone dark spot immediately to the left of the G impact is the site of the earlier D event (11.42 GMT, 17 July).
