Hello All,
I just read this article from the OCT/DEC 2010 issue of "EdgeScience" because I'm doing a project WRT magnesium as the primary material in "solid-body" UFOs:
www.scientificexploration.org/edgescience/edgescience_05.pdf
I was curious to see what the most up-to-date theories were of course and wanted to looked at the soil sample reports for the presence of magnesium. What I found in this article was a proposal for something I ran accross about 5-6 years ago on an astronomy Forum. This is at the end of the article:
" Conclusion
The general scenario for the Tunguska event that almost all
Tunguska investigators agree on is very simple: one space body
flew over Central Siberia performing no maneuvers, generated
in its flight a bow wave, exploded over the Southern swamp,
and produced a blast wave. But when we process the eyewitness
reports, we obtain, instead of an unambiguous picture of a
space body arriving from a definite direction, either two bodies
flying in different trajectories or one body performing various
maneuvers—or a combination of the two. Furthermore,
if the TSB was seen at a distance of 1,000 kilometers from
the epicenter, then it was flying at a small angle with respect
to the Earth’s surface. This angle could not have exceeded 10
to 15 degrees, otherwise the altitude at which the TSB began
to emit light would have been too great. But in this case, the
speed of the TSB before its explosion (that is, near the Southern
swamp) could not have exceeded 1 to 2 km/sec, otherwise
the body, flying in a flat trajectory, would have left a more
pronounced trace in the leveled forest of its bow wave than
it left. At this velocity, no “thermal explosion”—or any other
type of explosion due purely to the kinetic energy of a moving
body—is conceivable. So the TSB’s explosion must have been
produced by its internal energy (chemical, nuclear, or other).
Having at our disposal all this data, we are led towards accepting
Kazantsev’s “Alien Spacecraft” hypothesis as probably
worthy of further consideration, even if in a modified form.
It seems conceivable that in the morning of June 30, 1908,
two artificial objects flew over Central Siberia and one of them
exploded at Tunguska due to its internal energy. Whether this
event should have been interpreted as an “aerospace combat”
or as a “failed rescue operation” is a matter of conjecture. All
experienced Tunguska specialists agree that this problem will
be solved only when a real piece of the Tunguska space body
has been found. But no matter how imposing the theory proposed
for the Tunguska explosion, the only way to verify it
will probably involve discovering appreciable quantities of the
TSB substance in an area predicted by theory. This search has
at present a good chance for success.
The pattern of ytterbium’s distribution at Tunguska has
its maximum concentration at about 4 km to the west from the
epicenter. It is here that in 2004 Leonid Agafonov and Victor
Zhuravlev from the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy
of Sciences found several artificial metallic particles in the peat
layer dated 1908. “We should not jump to conclusions from
these findings. Yet we can probably hope to find in this area…a
larger remnant of the Tunguska space body. There seems to be
at this area a ‘geochemical halo’ surrounding the place of its
fall” (Zhuravlev & Agafonov 2008).
To bring what I saw on the asronomy Forum into the picture I submitt this now-defunct web site:
www.craterchains.com/
The two sources, when put together make for an interesting food-for-thought subject. ENJOY.
