  • On March 23, 1993, a giant comet was discovered near Jupiter. After being tracked for several weeks it was discovered on May 20, 1993 that the comet was going to impact Jupiter in July of 1994. This video gives a very brief history of the Shoemaker Levy 9 comet.

    Watching your video, I was trying to remember Shoemaker's connection to Arizona when I finally realized he was the one who determined Meteor Crater in Arizona was actually a meteor impact rater, rather than the previously-assumed volcanic crater.
    Fascinating man with an incredible resume of accomplishments. Thanks for sharing this one!
    PS - I live in Arizona and have a friend visiting for the first time, and Meteor Crater is on our agenda next Saturday!

    I had never heard of that event until today. I guess I was busy with work and life back then. Very interesting. You should never stop teaching, Forrest.

    Welcome back Forrest, not heard from you for a while. I remember the event very well, watching it on The Sky At Night here in the UK. Well done for bringing it back to me. Don’t be a stranger. Keep your F.B channel going, loving it. David.

    I remember my Geography teacher in school, Mrs O’Neill, telling us about this comet when it was discovered, she was pretty stoked about it and it peaked my interest in our skys and beyond. Thanks Mrs O’Neill.. Belfast, Ireland.
    Edit: Oh, and thank you Forrest for bringing back fond memories and of course, all your amazing videos. Long term subscriber. 😊👍

    Thanks Forrest for sharing Palomar Observatory with all your followers. Back in the 80’s when I lived in Julian, I’d ride my motorcycle up to Palomar for a Sunday run with my girlfriend. For those who are looking for a beautiful place on a weekend drive, definitely put this observatory on your list.

    I had to refresh my memory. The largest impactor was fragment G which created an explosion of 6 million megatons. Which was 600 times the entire world's arsenal. Left a mark the size of Earth.
