繼1994年蘇梅克－李維9號彗星撞擊木星後，木星再次被撞啦！兩位歐洲業餘天文學家於本月中旬觀測木星之際懷疑拍攝到有小行星或彗星撞擊木星的一刻，引起世界各地天文學家的注意。
其實，以木星於行星中的「大哥大」身份，其引力實在不容忽視，因此它被太空中的飄浮物撞擊也是很平常的事。

Collision spotted on Jupiter by two European amateur astronomers, reminding us of the devastating one done by Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 in 1994.
Being the giant among giants, Jupiter has been an ideal target for asteroids and comets, thus many more collisions are proposed to be spotted in the future on this giant planet.
