Ich weiß, ich weiß, ich bin spät dran. Aber dafür gibt es heute ein Astronomie-Musikvideo:

“1994 (The Jupiter Impact of 2009)”
Eine Parodie von Princes “1999”
Text von Kelly Fast


At the summit when I wrote this, forgive me but my head is sore.
I feel I’m in a time warp, déjà vu, been here before.
The irritated atmosphere is sporting a familiar bruise.
As with Shoemaker-Levy 9 we know there is no time to lose.

Ju-pi-ter two thousand zero niner, never thought we’d see any more.
But tonight there was an impact as in 1994!

Wesley caught post-impact, observatories rushed to see.
IRTF, Gemini, Keck II and HST.
Morphology and altitude, certainly an impact site.
Spectroscopy and imaging, we’ll rock that planet tonight!

Ju-pi-ter two thousand zero niner, never thought we’d see any more.
But tonight there was an impact as in 1994!

Dynamics, photochemistry, there is so much to be learned.
Twice in a lifetime, leave no asteroid or comet unturned.
SL9 was crazy, makes this loner seem so serene.
Still this is something that we wish Gene could have seen.

Ju-pi-ter two thousand zero niner, never thought we’d see any more.
But tonight there was an impact as in 1994!

Florian hatte zu dem Ereignis was geschrieben: Einschlag auf Jupiter.
