Scientific paper

Comet Shoemaker-Levy (1993e) is a comet that has recently broken up into many fragments, apparently somewhere in the vicinity of Jupiter. Ground-based observations reveal a string of sub-nuclei spaced over a distance of about one arcminute. HST observations of this object with the PC should reveal a fascinating spatial morphology that is more detailed than any images obtained from ground-based telescopes. In addition, FOS exposures searching for the UV band of OH should provide a sensitive indicator of any ice sublimation that has occurred since the comet's break-up.
