An announcement was posted to the sct-user Yahoo group and I reposted
it to Usenet's sci.astro.amateur as follows:
Reported earlier by Christopher Go:
" Anthony Wesley and I just caught an impact in Jupiter!! Check out
" the video that I got at:
"
" <http://astro.christone.net/jupiter/jupiterimpact.wmv>
"
" The impact occurred at around 20:30UT today. This video was done in
" blue filter.
"
" Regards,
"

The video at the above URL is about 3 seconds long. Christopher is
also the guy who discovered the "Red Spot, Jr." on Jupiter and used
the Hubble to chronicle the events.
He is an amateur astronomer and his website is here:
