9322449 Millis This project is one of four in a coordinated campaign that involves investigators from the University of Arizona, Lowell Observatory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and NASA Ames Research Center. The groups will deploy portable, high-speed CCD systems to four sites spaced in longitude around the globe for the purpose of recording an epochal series of collisions of various subnuclei of Comet Shoemaker- Levy 9 with the planet Jupiter. The objectives of the observations are to obtain images of all faces of Jupiter in several passbands immediately prior to the encounters, to record the flashes produced by the incoming bolides as seen in light reflected off the Galilean satellites, to document the changes produced in the planet's appearance as a result of the impacts, and to record the evolution of affected belts and zones as the planet settles back to equilibrium.

小行星9322449米利斯 该项目是一项协调运动中的四个项目之一，该运动涉及亚利桑那大学，洛厄尔天文台，马萨诸塞州理工学院和美国宇航局艾姆斯研究中心的调查人员。 这两个小组将在地球仪周围沿经度分布的四个地点部署便携式高速CCD系统，以便记录舒梅克-列维9号彗星各种次核与木星的一系列划时代的碰撞。 观测的目的是在即将遭遇木星之前的几个通带中获得木星所有表面的图像，记录从伽利略卫星反射的光中看到的入射火流星产生的闪光，记录由于撞击而产生的行星外观变化，并记录受影响的地带和区域的演变，因为地球沉降回平衡。
