ps this is for all our overseas members, naturally. Australian astronomers could not see Jupiter at that time.

cheers, Bird
I wonder if one could look at one of the moons that is on the other side of jupiter at approx the time of the impact and measure any brightening of that moon due to a reflection of the impact?
About the only way of seeing it
