Overview of Anomalous Phenomena Associated with the 1908 Tunguska Event
Science Frontiers #100 (Jul-Aug 1995)
N.V. Vasilyev has prepared a lengthy review of the 1908 Tunguska "event," which is usually ascribed to a wayward comet or meteorite. Vasilyev's data is based upon 167 reports, mostly in Russian. They show once again that this was no ordinary impact event, as illustrated by the following observations.

The Great Siberian Explosion
The UnMuseum
The above dramatization is one of the wilder theories proposed to explain the great Siberian explosion that occurred over central Asia on June 30, 1908. On that day something fell out of the sky. Something that produced the largest explosion in human memory.

The Tunguska Meteorite: A Dead-Lock or the Start of a New Stage of Inquiry
N.V.Vasilyev
The very fact of the existence of the so diverse views suggests a situation where the phenomenon in question is difficult to explain in all its aspects. Indeed, profound analysis of the factual data on the phenomenon evidences its structural complexity and seeming contradictoriness which restrict its interpretation in traditional terms. It is thus suitable to dwell upon certain most serious difficulties which are to be coped with in any attempt to construct an integrated concept of the Tunguska phenomenon.
The Tunguska Mystery
Stephen Wagner, About.com
In 1908, something exploded in an isolated area of Siberia. What was it? There are several theories as to what caused the great explosion in the sparsely populated forest at 62 degrees north latitude, but there is no definitive proof for any of them. Nearly 100 years later, the debate about the Tunguska event continues.
The Tunguska Problem: An Anomaly Par Excellence
Vladimir V. Rubtsov, RIAP Bulletin, 2000, Vol. 6, No. 1
What is important is, first of all, the special place occupied by the Tunguska problem both in science and in anomalistics. The volume of well-established empirical facts collected and analyzed in this field, as well as the number of serious theoretical models developed to account for these observations, probably outweighs all those found and proposed in other anomalistic fields put together.

This summer coincides with the 90th anniversary of the fall of the famous Tunguska space body (TSB). During the last years and decades the TSB investigators have been accumulating a vast amount of information on some TSB-related effects that were not previously studied in detail.

At 7.00am on 30th June 1908 near the lower Tunguska River, Siberia, a large explosion occurred. The explosion was so massive that it caused damage 400 miles away, and was heard even further. Even the heat that came out from the explosion was felt hundreds of miles away.
