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...

QUOTE Several large observatories in Hawaii -- Gemini, Keck, and IRTF -- attempted to view the impact site at the next opportunity, around 15:00 UTC June 4. No word yet on what they saw -- stay tuned! http://archive.stsci.edu/proposal_search.p...amp;mission=hst QUOTE As of this writing, no dark impact site has been detected with telescopes of any aperture, including the Gemini North telescope.
