Anthony,
I'm a late-comer to this thread, finally got to the last page.
I would just like to pass on my warmest congratulations on this most magnificent, once-in-a-lifetime discovery.
What is the likelihood of the scar remaining on the surface of Jupiter? Will it be like the Great Red Spot -- there for eons? If it's like the GRS, your name will go down in the history books. When children in future years look to mighty Jupiter and see the black scar, they'll be told of your story.
The thought is so humbling.
Has Kim from CAS contacted you yet to come and talk to us at the next meeting?
Congratulations, once again.
Regards,
Humayun
