Far out. They got a shot 3.7 seconds from impact and the flyby flight got an awesome shot of impact. The probe hit at 6 miles per second. Can't wait for the energy expenditure estimates that created that bright white light.

Biff - I am so stupid - I didn;t run up any video capture software - I was watching with my mouth open istead.

Glad you got to see it.
