See a defenseless gas giant get pelted while astronomers just sit by and WATCH.		A plume of gas is rising from the impact site of the largest comet fragment.
		Jupiter's rotation brings impact site into view, revealing dark dust rings spread across an Earth-sized area.
		Dust rings are beginning to dissipate.
		Dissipation continues. Dust blotch from impact of a later fragment can also be seen near Jupiter's edge.
