Summary: THE definitive book regarding the Tunguska Explosion.
Review: Real quickly, if you don't know anything about the Tunguska Explosion somehow, I highly recommend you read The Supernatural Zone's section on it (http://www.qsl.net/w5www/tunguska.html). That's not my site or anything, but it's probably the best collection of supernatural issues I've seen. But, if you're lazy, I'll give you a run-down of the explosion:In 1908 in Siberia, Russia, there was an explosion. But it wasn't the kind from a mere bomb, plane crash or meteor. No, this one could be seen all around the world. People who saw it described it as cylinder in shape. In the area that it occurred in, all life was demolished. Trees and other plants were mowed over. Animals in the area were incinerated. Nothing had a chance. The ground shook for hundreds of miles, and traveled around the world TWICE. People in Europe reported that the sky had turned different colors (mostly pink) despite it being into the night. For some reason though, this event wasn't really documented that much. A few newspaper and magazine articles were about it. Luckily, the government didn't try to cover this thing up, though I don't know why they would. This happened, and is/was very real. Troops were called out to investigate sightings of a strange beast-like figure in the mountains. The figure was spotted, and the soldiers chased after it. They cornered it, and shot it dead. 'gotta love the military. This book was published in 1976, and I'm surprised at how well-put together it is. These guys really did their research. It isn't hundreds of pages of scientific tests and data, but it's the information you want to know. Stories from people in the area, pictures, possible explanations and more. The pictures are very nice. While they're in black and white, they're very clear, and give you a good idea of how powerful the blast was. It goes into detail about pretty much everything you'd want to know that could be answered. The chapters are as follows: -The Explosion
-An Enormous Silence
-The First Expedition
-The Tunguska Expedition
-Fall Point
-The Riddle
-The Answer?
-The Fire Came By
-Antimatter or Black Hole?
-The Cylindrical Object
-A Cosmic Visitor I highly recommend this book. It's the only one I've read that covers the main points. As you can see- even stories from people that went on expeditions to try and figure out what happened are here. The only bad thing (if any) is that it's just 165 pages, leaving you wanting more info. But again, this book was written over 25 years ago, so I shouldn't complain. Besides, that's what we have the internet for now. But if you can find this book, go for it. Actually, there are a ton of them right here at Amazon's Used & New for sickeningly cheap prices. So what are you waiting for?

Summary: Convincing proof of the demise of an alien space probe
Review: The authors provide convincing evidence, mostly from Russian scientific and international historical sources, that indicate that the massive explosion over Siberia in 1908 was not due to a black hole, or a comet, or a bolide, or any other hypothetical (unproven) natural cause, but was thermonuclear in type and that the object was seen by witnesses to maneuver, as if guided by intelligence, moments before its demise. The "Foreward" of the book, written by Isaac Asimov, may be summarized as "Hmmm, very interesting!" The reading experience is short but sweet; evidentiary photographs are included. It's the only convincing evidence I have seen about the possible origins of UFO's.
