	This animation is a rendering sequence done by John Spencer
(Lowell Observratory) some time ago.  The image frames were rendered on an
Amiga and then assembled into an mpeg from 640 x 480 TIFF files. 
	The animation shows the view of the impacts from "behind" the 
comet train.  The animation covers 12 hours on July 20, 1994.  
	Some of the information may be dated as it was created a while 
ago, but it is still an enjoyable show...
	There are two versions available - a full resolution 640 x 480 
version, and a half-size 320 x 240 version for slower computers.

		Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 Collision with Jupiter
				July 1994

Animation: John Spencer, Lowell Observatory
	With assitance from: Don Yeomans, Charles Avis, Pam Woncik, Jane 
Spencer, Nick Schneider.

This animation shows the collision of 5 of the 22 known fragments of the 
comet (named N, P2, P1, Q2, and Q1) with Jupiter's night side.

The viewpoint is close to a hypothetical sixth fragment trailing behind 
the others. The animation covers 12 hours on July 20, 1994.
