This is an image of Jupiter taken with a CCD camera on the
0.8m telescope at McDonald Observatory of the University of Texas on
18 Jul 1994 UT (17 Jul 1994 CDT) at 03:37UT (10:37 CDT).
This picture was taken at a color at which methane gas absorbs
strongly. Thus most of the planet is dark, but regions with particles
in the upper atmosphere above most of the absorbing methane gas appear
bright. The equatorial regions and the Great Red Spot show very
prominently, as do the north and south polar hoods. North is to the
upper left. There are two disturbances due to the impact of pieces
of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9. These are located above the south polar hood
near the east (left) limb of the planet. The one nearest the limb is
from piece A, and the one nearer the center is from pieces E and F,
which hit in nearly the same place on Jupiter.
These images were taken by Dr. Chan Na (Southwest Research Institute),
Dr. Wayne Pryor (University of Colorado) and Dr. Anita Cochran
(University of Texas).
