Hubble Captures Deep Impact's Collision with Comet
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope captured the dramatic
effects of the collision early July 4 between an 820-pound projectile
released by the Deep Impact spacecraft and comet 9P/Tempel 1. This
sequence of images shows the comet before and after the impact. The
visible-light images were taken by the Advanced Camera for Surveys' High
Resolution Camera.
