Hi Mark and others;
Even more amusing is that it was captured using a PGR "Dragonfly2" mono camera.
More images and details on scope / camera etc. from the guy who imaged it first at:
http://jupiter.samba.org/jupiter-impact.html
Also, I was wrong on the offset angle too. It's -90 from the GRS rotating out of view on thew west horizon and would have been just rising in Jim Chungs image.
It should be visible here tonight at 11:55 pm (MST), although Jupiter will be only 10 degrees above the horizon. The CSC says it will be overcast then, so we will see.
TTYL..

Thanks Milton,
I`ve had a look at those. One of the guys there, David Kolb has an
image taken on July 18th without the spot & estimates it must`ve
happened on the 19th. I guess Jim Chung was imaging with his
Lightbridge at a different time of night?
Mark.
