Amazing how much data has emerged from that brief Impact flash Stu.  The crater left behind maybe small  considering the amount of energy released, however,  I wonder If will be given a name, and If so, is there a candidate in the frsme.     Going back to the Shoemaker Levy comet fragments impacting Jupiter, (and wasn't that an event),  Those multiple impacts were prepared for, this lesser event came out of the blue, but being in eclipse, the moon was under scrutiny by many observers, and the flash was picked up by some of the imagers that night.

Thanks for the link to that report.
