Another clue was the Tunguska explosion that flattened a thousand square miles of forest across Siberia in 1908. Because there is no crater of sufficient size to have caused this event,

Hmmm.
A crater could not have caused that explosion.

Well, that's good to know.

I guess.

Thanks Blam.
The Cray supercomputer at Sandia, nicknamed Red Storm, was developed jointly by Cray and Sandia
The nickname was developed by some adults who still read comic books, or maybe a previous generation AI program.

Seems like a great time to roll out the new GGG ping message format. Unfortunately, it's not done, mostly because I spend too much time online.

Landsat image of Kebira Crater in Egypt's Western desert, near the border with Libya. (Image: Boston University Center for Remote Sensing)

Libya's Kebira Crater A huge crater in the Sahara desert, said to be the largest one ever found in the region, and dwarfing Arizona's "Meteor Crater", poses new questions for geologists. Is the crater related to the origins of the mysterious "desert glass" in the region?
