Presented here are the results of an intensive visual and photographic study of Jupiter carried out in 1994. The main objective of the study was to search for changes in appearance or rotation rate of the planet as a result of the impact of Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9. One obvious change was the development of the resulting dark spots. More subtle changes in the latitudes of the South South Temperate Belt and the South Polar Region may also have occurred. Preliminary rotational rates for the four impact spots associated with comet fragments E, H, L, and Q1 are 9h 55m 36s, 9h 55m 22s, 9h 54m 34s, and 9h 55m 29s, respectively.
