in 1994, scientists watched as comet Shoemaker-Levy collided with Jupiter. It exploded in the Jovian atmosphere, and the Hubble telescope recorded the largest incandescent fireball ever witnessed rising over Jupiter's horizon.

I was always perplexed by this. I'm sure there is a simple scientific explanation. If Jupiter is a big ball of gas with no solid surface anywhere, what did Shoemaker-Levy impact against? And how was it that those black "scars" remained for some time where it impacted being that the comet flew into gas?

Just curious.
