Tunguska Event
So says Russian scientist Dr. Yuri Labvin, that is. The president of the Tunguska Spatial Phenomenon Foundation insists that a UFO deliberately crashed into a large meteor to prevent it from striking the planet. He believes the result of the collision was the famous Tunguska Event that took place over Siberia in 1908.
Most scientists consider the cause of the ‘event’ to have been a meteorite exploding a few miles above the Earth’s surface (note that although no direct impact occurred it is still classed as a meteorite rather than just a meteor). Whatever produced the blast, which, incidentally, is estimated to have been a staggering thousand times more powerful than the nuclear bomb that destroyed Hiroshima, it felled over 80 million trees in an area covering some 800 square miles. Mind-boggling as it sounds, no one, due to the region’s sparse population density, is thought to have died in the incident.
Theories and stories have long held that the whole thing was down to an alien spacecraft colliding with, or firing an advanced weapon at, a meteor or comet, but little proof has ever been put forward to back up such ideas – until now. In an interview with the Macedonian International News Agency, Dr. Labvin offers some striking evidence to support the notion of extra-terrestrial involvement. He not only suggests that unusually marked quartz slabs found at the site are remnants of the UFO’s control panel, but also goes onto explain why they couldn’t have come from Earth or have been inscribed as they are even with today’s latest laser technology.
So it looks like little green men – jolly decent chaps, I’ve always said so – did save us from extinction, after all. Possibly. . .
