Today we talk about the Tunguska Event, the most powerful natural explosion in recorded history that turned a remote Siberian forest into a scene of utter devastation.

On a June morning in 1908, a massive blast - estimated to be 1,000 times more powerful than the bomb dropped on Hiroshima - flattened over 80 million trees across 800 square miles. Yet, strangely, there was no crater to be found. In this episode, we’re investigating the mystery of the "Siberian fireball," from the eyewitness accounts of a sky splitting in two to the modern scientific consensus of a massive airburst from a stony asteroid.

We’ll explore why it took decades for researchers to reach the site, the lingering conspiracy theories, and what this cosmic wake-up call teaches us about the threats still lurking in our solar system. Watch the skies, this one hits close to home.
