they met each other a long time ago
Shoemaker-Levy 9 was named after the team of scientists who discovered it: Eugene Shoemaker, Carolyn Shoemaker, and David Levy. The "9" refers to the fact that it was the ninth periodic comet discovered by the team.
Comet Shoemaker-Levy Collided with Jupiter in July 1994.
Shoemaker-Levy 9 will not return as it broke apart and collided with Jupiter in July 1994. It is not expected to reassemble or return as a single entity.
In 1994, comet Shoemaker-Levy collided with Jupiter. Much of the comet broke up in the atmosphere. The comet left visible scars on Jupiter for many months.
After Shoemaker-Levy,a comet that hit Jupiter.Maybe Shoemaker-Levy exploded at the surface of Jupiter and created a crater.Then after Shoemaker-Levy exploded at the surface of Jupiter it started to rain C4 bombs in Jupiter! Then Jupiter Blew up!!! BOOOM!!! The End.

The comet was named Shoemaker-Levy 9 - after the discoverers Carolyn & Eugene Shoemaker, and David Levy ! They discovered it orbiting Jupiter on March 24, 1993.
He co-discovered the shoemaker-levy that collided with Jupiter in 1994.
no, they are not,because shoemaker levy 8 cannot do the work of shoemaker levy 9.
The Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 was discovered by Carolyn and Eugene Shoemaker and David Levy in 1993. It is customary to name a comet after it's discoverers, up to three names separated by hyphens.
The largest fragments from the Shoemaker-Levy 9 comet were about 2 kilometers across.

Ed Shoemaker was killed in an auto accident in Australia in 1997. His ashes were sent to the Moon aboard the Lunar Prospector space probe. David Levy is living in Vail, Arizona, and hosts a weekly internet radio program on astronomy. They were the co-discoverers of many comets, the most famous of which was Shoemaker-Levy 9. In July 1994, fragments of the Shoemaker Levy 9 crashed into Jupiter, the first confirmed example of a comet colliding with a planet. At the time of the impact, the explosion of the comet crashing into Jupiter was clearly visible from Earth using only modest telescopes. The blemishes in Jupiter's clouds were visible for months.
