Anthony Wesley in Australia says he saw another impact on Jupiter today- this time capturing the immediate flash on video. No obvious aftereffects, so far, but Europeans and Americans with telescopes might want to take a look tonight...

Fresh off the presses of Volcanopele's Gish Bar Times: another probable Jupiter impact observed yesterday! Story & links:
http://www.gishbartimes.org/2010/08/meteor...n-jupiters.html EDIT: Not yesterday...20 Aug around 1822 UTC. -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.

since we cant monitor every minute, we are likely missing most of these.
dont forget that an equal number of hits is occurring unseen by us on the backside each year! voyager 1/2 looked at the night side. they saw lots of lightning but Im not sure they saw fireballs during their brief peeks. anyone care to dredge up those old photos for a relook? p -------------------- Dr. Paul Schenk, Lunar and Planetary Institute, Houston TX
