Did aliens save planet in 1908? Russians say they have found spaceship debris
Members of a Russian scientific team researching the site of the Tunguska meteorite crash of 1908 say they have found remnants of an extraterrestrial spacecraft, report a variety of Russian news agencies.
The object appeared to be a large metallic block, according to the reports. The researchers chipped a piece of the object and will now test its composition.
One scientist said based on his calculations, the mass of the space object headed for Earth in 1908 was nearly 1 billion tons. He believes the meteorite was blasted by the spaceship at an altitude of 10 kilometers to prevent the destruction of all humanity on the planet.
"I am fully confident and I can make an official statement that we were saved by some forces of a superior civilization," Yuri Lavbin said. "They exploded this enormous meteorite that headed towards us with enormous speed," he said. Now this great object that caused the meteorite to explode is found at last. We will continue our research, he said.

Now that is not to say that a spaceship caused it!
Just parts of Moore's next Bush film.
Blasted it just before it reached earth....
It's probably a piece of MIR or any of the other lost Russian spacecraft.
