Tunguska - An overhead explosion

I think it's more than a postulate. The paper is 64 pages long so one would think they gathered some solid evidence. From the abstract:

We present evidence that in ~ 1650 BCE (~ 3600 years ago), a cosmic airburst destroyed Tall el-Hammam, a Middle-Bronze-Age city in the southern Jordan Valley northeast of the Dead Sea. The proposed airburst was larger than the 1908 explosion over Tunguska, Russia, where a ~ 50-m-wide bolide detonated with ~ 1000× more energy than the Hiroshima atomic bomb. A city-wide ~ 1.5-m-thick carbon-and-ash-rich destruction layer contains peak concentrations of shocked quartz (~ 5–10 GPa); melted pottery and mudbricks; diamond-like carbon; soot; Fe- and Si-rich spherules; CaCO3 spherules from melted plaster; and melted platinum, iridium, nickel, gold, silver, zircon, chromite, and quartz. Heating experiments indicate temperatures exceeded 2000 °C. Amid city-side devastation, the airburst demolished 12+ m of the 4-to-5-story palace complex and the massive 4-m-thick mudbrick rampart, while causing extreme disarticulation and skeletal fragmentation in nearby humans. An airburst-related influx of salt (~ 4 wt.%) produced hypersalinity, inhibited agriculture, and caused a ~ 300–600-year-long abandonment of ~ 120 regional settlements within a > 25-km radius. Tall el-Hammam may be the second oldest city/town destroyed by a cosmic airburst/impact, after Abu Hureyra, Syria, and possibly the earliest site with an oral tradition that was written down (Genesis). Tunguska-scale airbursts can devastate entire cities/regions and thus, pose a severe modern-day hazard.

I think the Abu Hureyra site has been reported on SOTT a few years ago.
 
I saw this a few days ago and it was a rather shocking discovery.

Specially after that latest session and the missing time after Caesar's death, these events can be so instant and so catastrophic that unless you're looking for the evidence, it can completely bypass researchers.
 

This was published on SOTT Monday.
Missed it. My search used Tall el-Hammam and I got stories about skyscrapers and Killary. Should have been more thorough. Good to know it's up.
 
A new article came out arguing that a cosmic air-burst destroyed a city in the Jurdan Valley near the Dead Sea.

Update by John Tonry with the collaboration of Myriam Telus, Jay Tate, (of Space Guard UK), Willie Koorts of South Africa, and NASA.

It's not a matter of 'if' it's a matter of 'when' a large asteroid hits earth. NASA is funding the hunt for all the large near-earth asteroids but there are still an unknown number left to find, plus hundreds of sub 1km asteroids. Amazingly there are no funded asteroid surveys in Britain. One man has started his own Astrid hunt and might just have an 'edge' on the NASA-funded programs. Jay Tate of Space Guard in rural Powys is searching for asteroids others might miss. This film tells the story of why NASA funded the Atlas project and how it works. Also, the story of UK o Space Guard run by Jay Tate. Thanks for watching. Please like, share, and leave a comment. If you can support Jay Tate with help or funding get in touch. Simon Holland - Science Filmmaker. Stay tuned for more interesting films.

 

Thanks. So, indeed, the number of Asteroids in our solar system might be at least 10 more:

 
Regarding Glenn's post above about Tunguska-

The magnetic pole variance was greatest about 1850 (roughly 23 degrees from the geographic pole?) and this is when the industrial revolution was getting on. Scientific discoveries aplenty were made between 1850 and 1900. After the wandering movement prior, in 1904 the mag pole took off in a straight and accelerating line depicted below. Einstein published his theory of relativity I believe in 1905.

17.5 Questioner: What was its purpose in coming here?


Ra: It was a drone designed to listen to the various signals of your peoples. You were, at that time, beginning work in a more technical sphere. We were interested in determining the extent and the rapidity of your advances

Here is a plot of the movement of the north magnetic pole

There is this breaking news from Russian scientists. They promise more data after they return home form the expedition.

Quote from this article (translated from Russian):

Scientists at Minin University have discovered proof for the existence of the Tunguska meteorite crater...

"On August 30, the main stage of the Minin University expedition to the site of the Tunguska meteorite fall has ended. After 10 days of autonomous travel, I managed to get in touch from the village of Vanarava. Everyone is alive and well. It was not without difficulties, but all the goals of the expedition have been reached! Moreover, facts confirming the existence of the Tunguska meteorite crater were discovered!" said Alexey Kiselev, a teacher at Minin University, as soon as he managed to catch the cell phone signal.

Details of the expedition will be published after the participants return to Nizhny Novgorod.
 
I found this interesting explanation of what happened in Tunguska. The writer is apparently an ET living inside a human conduit, called "ST in BG" in the forum. Basically, an asteroid was going to hit earth and cause a life extinction event. The ETs in scout ships planted explosives on the asteroid but one of the scout ships was caught in the blast. The scout ship would have hit human settlements and killed many, were it not for a ET pilot that maneuvered the scout ship above the forest at Tunguska. The ET pilot sacrificed its life to save people.

I don't know how true this is but an interesting explanation for sure.

**Here Is What REALLY HAPPENED !! (No, This Didn't Have Anything To Do With "Nikola Tesla's Experiments !!)

**There Was A Very Large Asteroid On Collision Course With Terra/Earth ... Of This It Would Have Caused A "Life Extinction Event" !!

**Of This Knowledge/Knowing, Extraterrestrial Beings, Specialists In Dealing With Dangerous Spacial Phenomena Were Brought In To Deal With The Situation !!

**They Arrived In Their Vessels, & Planted Explosive Charges On The Surface Of The Asteroid !!

**One Such Vessel, A One ET Being Scout Ship Was Monitoring The Operation, & Was Caught In The Explosion ... The Pressure/Energy Wave, When The Detonation Occurred !!

**Automatic Control Was Lost On The Scout Craft/Ship ... It Was Pulled In Toward Terra/Earth ... & Came Through The Atmosphere Over Tunguska, Siberia !!

**The Scout Craft Was Discovered By The Pilot, Of Having The "Magnetic Containment Bottle" Of The Anti-Matter-Matter Reactor, That This Was Cracked ... & It Was Only The Temporary "Emergency Protective Field", That Was Keeping The Craft/Ship From Blowing Up !!

**The Ship Was Out Of Control, & Headed Toward A Populated Village !!

**The Pilot Knew Of The Size/Extent Of The Containment Field Failing ... & Of An Anti-Matter - Matter Explosion Of This Size, It Would Cause Not Only Life In That Area To Be Extinguished/Vaporized ... But Of The Energies Released, A Physical Pole Shift Of The Planet !!

**There Was No Other Choice, In Order To Save This Village, These People, & All Life On The World, He Needed To Engage "Manual Control" & "Manually Direct/Control" The Scout Vessel !!

**He Did So, Altering It's Trajectory/Course, Taking The Ship High Up Into The Air, In Which From That Higher Vantage Point, He Looked For A Place, A Location/Area, In Which Would Contain/Buffer The Blast/Explosion, That Was Forthcoming !!

**From High In The Air, He Spotted A Forest, & Manually Set/Altered Course For This Location !!

**"Time" Was Running Out !!!! ... He Estimated Perhaps A Couple Of Minutes Before The Anti-Matter Leaks Out & Combines With Matter, In Which The Explosion Would Occur !!

**He Made It To The Forest, Lowered Down The Ship, Over & On Top, To Hopefully Direct The Explosion & Force Wave Downward, In Which It Was Hoped That The Forest Below Of Dense Trees, Would Buffer/Disperse The Energies, In Such A Way, As To Contain The Blast/Shock Wave Locally, Rather Then Having These Energies Travel Throughout The Planet !!

**Seconds To Go Now ... Waiting Of That Which Will Occur !!

**There Was A Bright Flash Of Light ... Not Unlike A Nuclear Blast .... The Pilot Was Instantly Vaporized !! ... Then Came The Shock Wave/Blast ... Which Was Directed Downward, Spreading Out, & Pushing Over Great Amounts Of Living Trees In This Forest !!

**The Tunguska, Siberia Village Was Saved, The Planet Itself Was Saved, & Spared The Destruction & Elimination, The Death Of All Life There !!

**Of The Pilot, He Gave His Life To Save Life ... Not Knowing Who These Being Were ... Not Having Been To The Living Planet Terra/Earth Previously !! ... He Only Knew That His Life Was A Small Price To Pay, For The Continuation Of Life There !!

**The Living Forest, It Too Of It's Members/People ... Were Willing To Sacrifice Themselves, To Save Other Life/Life Forms & The Living Planet Terra/Earth !!

**Of "Terrestrial Scientific Puzzlement" Regarding The Tunguska, Siberia Explosion ....

1. There Was No Crater/Hole Made By The "Believed" Asteroid Impact !! ... Yet There Was/Is Confirmed "Asteroid Debris" !!

**The Reason For This Is ... That The Explosion Was "Above The Trees", Not Directly Into The Ground/Surface ... The Energies Went Downward, Then Dispersed Outward, So The "Physical Blast" Did Not "Dig/Blast" A Hold/Crater Out !!

**As To The The "Asteroid Debris" Over The "Impact Site/Area" ... This Was Of What Remained Of The Asteroid That Was Blown Up In Space, Whose Debris Small & Harmless Was "Drawn Into" The Atmosphere Of Terra/Earth Over Tunguska, Siberia, As Was The One Being Scout Craft !!

**The Debris "Rained Down", Over The Area, Settling Down Over The Anti-Matter-Matter Scout Craft Explosion Site, Of Not Just One, But At Least One Other Forest Being Blown Down, Leading To Many "Theories & Speculations" (Other Then The Correct Answer !!) As To What Happened There !!

**There Have Been "Substantiating Evidences" Found, Briefly Stated, Yet Then Covered Up, As It Points To A Completely Different & "No This Couldn't Happen/Wild Happening" ... Which Many "Terrestrial "Experts" Would Have To Explain, To A Public Wanting Answers !!

1. One's Of That Region, Of Tunguska, Siberia Of That Village Were Noted Of Having "Symptoms" Relating To "Radiation Exposure/Sickness" !!

2. The "Light In The Sky" (Scout Craft)
Was Witnessed In Having Changed/Altered Course !! ... No Termed "Natural Phenomena" Is Known To Do This (Which Includes Asteroids, Meteors, Ect. !!) ... Therefore It Was "Under Control", & Made A Course Correction/Adjustment !!

3. Joseph Stalin, The Leader Of The Soviet Union, Mounted An Expedition To Tunguska, Siberia ... In Search Of The Remains Of What They Believed Was An "Extraterrestrial Event" ... A "Downed Spacecraft" !! .... There Was Information That Was "Leaked Out", That Certain Remains Were Found, & Taken Away To Be Studied !!

4. Another Russian Individual, In "Times" More Recent, Led An Expedition To This "Explosion Site" In Tunguska, Siberia, And Of The Moments Spent There ... Discovered The "Deer Box" ... Which Is Another Name/Identification For What May Be Called In Terrestrial Airplanes ... "The Black Box", That Records All Flight Data !! ... In This Case It Was Part Of The Control Systems/Control Panel ... This Was/Is Operated By "Another Way/Method" ... Which Would Not Be Recognized Or Understood, By "Terrestrial Experts"

**It Is Very Sad, & WE (ETs) Would Also Go So Far As To Say Downgrading If Not Demeaning, In Not Showing Honorance & Recognition For What This Individual Did, In Saving The Living Planet & All Life Residing There !! .... It Should Also Be Of Same Recognition, Of The Living Trees & Other Living Things That Gave Their Physical Lifeforms, To Ensure That All Others Living There Would Survive !!

**While WE (ETs) Know, What Happened, What Occurred, Of The Being, The Pilot Of The Scout Craft Being ... One Of The People/One People (See "Handle" Imagery)... It Is Doubtful That The Full Truth/Facts, Of What Really Went On Then, Will Ever Be Given, The Being & The Living Trees & Other Living Things Honored & Recognized For Their Great Sacrifices !!

**In Closing, It Is To Note, That Of The Conduit, Of His Energies, He Was/Is ... That Pilot ... Which Saved Terra/Earth Of That Incident/Event ... & Preserved Life On That Living World !

Farewell For Now !!

There is this breaking news from Russian scientists. They promise more data after they return home form the expedition.

There is an update regarding potential Tunguska crater. No hard data or pictures yet. The samples of the soil were sent to the labratory.

Here's first source in Russian and translated to English.

Scientists were able to find a mixed thickness of peat and loam with buried in it catastrophic trees and signs of melting of matter.

- Our scientific team examined the object discovered on the images from space - a swamp with a circular structure (it is located east of the famous Suslovsky crater, which was originally mistaken for a crater from the Tunguska meteorite). In the bottom sediments of the swamp, and we found what could be evidence of the fall of a meteorite in 1908 - said Alexei. - We investigated many circular structures filled with water. Then by eliminating all the thermokarst lakes we identified the most unusual formation - a circular swamp with a diameter of 250 meters. What suggests the meteoritic origin of the reservoir is an island in its center, from where we took samples with balls of molten rock.

Second, University source in Russian and translated to English.

According to the participants, this expedition was one of the most difficult journeys in their lives:

"First of all, months of preparation and approvals. Many thanks to the university, which not only provided material assistance, but also helped to negotiate with the Tunguska Nature Reserve, since its territory is closed to visitors. The expedition to the place of the Tunguska meteorite fall was not only a very important event, but also very dangerous, because the taiga is unpredictable. We overcame more than 70 kilometers on foot, in bad weather, through swamps and rivers, walking among a fallen forest," shared a teacher of Minin University.

And there are more news about Tunguska meteorite from the Russian scientists.

During the study of bottom sediments of lakes of the Tunguska Plateau Krasnoyarsk scientists found an increased number of particles of charcoal in a layer correlated with the beginning of the twentieth century. Researchers believe that the particles found may be a trace of a massive fire caused by the fall of the Tunguska meteorite.

Specialists studied bottom sediments in lakes Cheko and Zapovednoe, located near the epicenter of the Tunguska phenomenon, to estimate the intensity of fires in the past and compare it with modern ones. As a result of the analysis, the researchers determined that in bottom sediments about 1,500 years old and in modern sediments, the background content of coal particles is about the same. This means that there is no dramatic increase in the intensity of wildfires in the area.

However, in both lakes at a depth of about 50 centimeters, scientists found increased amounts of particles of charcoal and weathering elements of terrestrial rocks: titanium, rubidium, yttrium, zirconium, potassium, niobium. Perhaps this is a trace of a strong fire and mass tree fallout that took place in this area in the early twentieth century.

Researchers have connected it with the phenomenon of the so-called "Tunguska meteorite", because it was here in 1908 that the Tunguska disaster occurred - a strong explosion of unknown nature, which caused extensive tree fall and forest fire on an area of about 700 square kilometers.

Here's the paper:
