Wow big news reports coming in that Jupiter has been hit again. This is still unconfirmed if it’s clear where you are try having a look if possible send on the images.

From John Rogers
Here is a visual report of an apparent fireball on Jupiter, just 9 hours ago, so the site should be visible again over the next few hours. The observer reported it to Richard Schmude of the ALPO. It sounds realistic, but obviously it needs confirmation if possible:

a) by looking for any 'impact scar' tonight or over the next few days;

b) by searching any webcam video that any observers might have been recording at the time.

From the time and position given, the flash was on the NEB at approx. L1=335, L2=219, L3=257.

Let's hope someone has a record of it!

Happy hunting,

John
