List of sites holding images of the SL9-Jupiter crash

.. finally available as HTML file !

Also available as ascii file

Former "Preliminary list of sites holding images of the SL9-Jupiter crash", 27th edition. No more preliminary since the 17th edition, but:

corrections, updates, and additions welcome (STILL !!)

Thanks to Chris Lewicki, this file has found a very good home on the famous ftp server ftp.seds.org (now accessible as web archive, http://files.seds.org/pub/astro/SL9/sl9-list.txt. Formerly, it could be accessed as follows:

Anon ftp, including FTP-Mail, e.g. to ftpmail@seds.org
Gopher to www.seds.org, go to "SEDS ANONYMOUS FTP SITE (FTP.SEDS.ORG) | astro | SL9 | sl9-list"
On a WWW client, the URL is (still!) " http://spider.seds.org/sl9-list.txt" (the newest version always) or " http://files.seds.org/pub/astro/SL9/sl9-list.txt"

Thanks to Christine Kronberg, the SL9 list has found a second home at the Munich Astro Archive, http://www.maa.clell.de/, where it can be accessed by HTTP (Web browsers) as

http://www.maa.clell.de/SL9/sl9-list.html (html format) or
http://www.maa.clell.de/SL9/sl9-list.txt (plain ascii format).

European users should profit from the faster access to this place in Germany.

NEWS

Chris Kronberg of the MAA and me are still looking for results of amateur observations of the SL9 impact; please contribute your observations and results ! We are particularly interested in well evaluated results; please notify me !
They are going online at: http://www.maa.clell.de/SL9/Html/amateur.html
Although the SL9 scene has calmed down, there is still considerable motion, as things get organized in a more or less final form. Thus I still collect further sites, corrections, and other SL9-related stuff.
Question marks mark sites I could not reach, exclamation marks those I have changed (new or modified, i.e. site name or directory changed).

  Mailing List: (total section)
    sl9 at seds.org

When SL9 smashed into Jupiter, there was a frequented mailing list devoted to it (sl9 at seds.org). Comet SL9 homepage at JPL ( http://www.jpl.nasa.gov/sl9/) was one of the first webpages in the world which topped 7 million accesses (March 1996) ! During the comet impact week of July 16-22, 1994, the Comet SL9 home page became the most accessed home page in the world with over 1.1 million accesses (this rate was not surpassed until Galileo's arrival at planet Jupiter in early December 1995). The page is still being updated with the latest news and images on the aftermath of the comet impacts with Jupiter. With over 1,440 images, this home page has the world's largest collection of comet impact images available on the Internet.
