Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Eight Looks at the Jupiter Impact. These images show eight different looks at the aftermath of a body — probably an asteroid — hitting Jupiter on July 19, 2009. Amateur astronomer Anthony Wesley was the first to capture an image of the impact, with a visible-light camera attached to his telescope in Australia. A NASA Hubble Space Telescope image was obtained in the visible light spectrum. Infrared images were obtained by NASA’s Infrared Telescope Facility and the Gemini North telescope both on Mauna Kea in Hawai‘i, and the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope in Chile. The images were taken between July 19 and 26, 2009. Read more [/public/announcements/geminiann11003/ here].
