"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."

This is SO ridiculous! Aliens blasting meteorites......sheeez.

Everybody knows that it was Nicola Tesla's first test of his giant electrical resonator coil that did the damage.
