CALIFORNIA - The impact of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 on Jupiter in 1994 is an event of great interest to astronomers. Reportedly, the impact of a comet hit Jupiter can help scientists to find plenty of water content in the atmosphere of the giant planet.
Reported by the Examiner, Friday (04/26/2013), water vapor has been detected during a collision comet impact into Jupiter. Extraterrestrial object hit the gaseous planet split into 21 fragments, which hit Jupiter's atmosphere.
A large amount of water released during the impact of comet fragments hit as vapourized. After the comet hit, then fragments mixed with gas from the upper atmosphere.
In 1997, additional observations from ESA's Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) indicate the presence of water vapor in the atmosphere more than usual Jupiter. It is known that water vapor is still in the stratosphere of Jupiter.
Scientists estimate there are 95 percent water vapor in the atmosphere of Jupiter. Water vapor was allegedly came from comet impacts to blow the planet.
Wikipedia explains, Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun after the nearest Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars. The average distance between Jupiter and the Sun is 778.3 million kilometers.
Jupiter is the largest and heaviest planet with a diameter of 149 980 kilometers and has a mass 318 times the mass of Earth. The planet's rotation period is 9 hours 55 minutes, while the period of revolution is 11.86 years. (FMH)
