David H. Levy of Tucson, Arizona, sends this report:

Date: Sat, 17 Dec 1994
Subject: Jupiter

This morning from 13:40 to 14:00 UT I observed Jupiter visually with my 20cm f/7 reflector, through poor seeing. The dark material left from the impacts of S-L 9 is still there, and still obvious. Crossing almost across the correct latitude is a dark bar which widens into a large spot about a third of the way from the western limb. With the exception of the North Equatorial Belt, these features are the most conspicuous on Jupiter.
