Scientist Claims UFO Collided with Tunguska Meteorite to Save Earth

Supposedly, the Tunguska crytals. Credit:  MinaClassify this under new of the weird. A Russian scientist claims that aliens downed the Tunguska meteorite 101 years ago to protect our planet from devastation. Yuri Lavbin says he found unusual quartz crystals at the site of the massive Siberian explosion. Ten crystals have holes in them, placed so the stones can be united in a chain, and other have drawings on them. “We don’t have any technologies that can print such kind of drawings on crystals,” said Lavbin. “We also found ferrum silicate that can not be produced anywhere, except in space.”

... The Tunguska Event was a powerful explosion that occurred in an uninhabited and desolate area near the Tunguska River in Russia, on June 30, 1908. Although the cause of the explosion is the subject of debate, it is commonly believed to have been caused by the explosion of a large meteoroid or comet fragment, occurring the in Earth’s atmosphere about 5–10 kilometers (3–6 miles) high. The blast flattened an estimated 60 million trees over 2,150 square kilometers, but no crater or “smoking gun” meteorite has ever been found. Different studies have yielded varying estimates of the object’s size, but there is general agreement that it was a few tens of meters across.

A couple of expeditions have gone to the remote site of the crash. Lavbin says that one expedition located the unusual crystals.

While I’m not a chemist, I couldn’t find any information on “ferrum silicate.” Seemingly, it doesn’t exist.

One small, nondescript photo accompanied Lavbin’s claims, published by the Macedonian International News Agency.

This isn’t the first time a UFO has been claimed to associated with the Tunguska event. Another report from 2004 said a scientific expedition to the site found blocks of an extraterrestrial technical device, and one 50-kilogram piece of the stone was brought to the city of Krasnoyarsk to be studied and analyzed. No subsequent reports or analysis could be located during an internet search.

Other claims of exploding alien spaceships or alien weapons detonating to “save the Earth from an imminent threat” appear to originate from a science fiction story “A Visitor From Outer Space” written by Soviet engineer Alexander Kazantsev in 1946, in which a nuclear-powered Martian spaceship, seeking fresh water from a lake blew up in mid-air. This story was was said to be inspired by Kazantsev’s visit to Hiroshima in late 1945.

I can imagine, if I was on the starship Enterprise orbiting at an invisible distance from some inhabited alien planet and that planet was threatened by a large meteor, I would launch a weapon to destroy that meteor and save that planet and it inhabitants. But, would I send the starship Enterprise in a collision course to save that plant? That's a bit earthocentric isn't it?

Well, so is, for that matter, an alien spacecraft that traveled at least a 1000 light-years to reach planet earth and then crash. I think that the technology available to space traveler would be bit more advanced.

I really, really, believe most people don't understand HOW PRIMITIVE WE ARE! How long have computers been around? How long ago did we developed the technology of flight? When did we develop the first steam locomotive and placed tracks for them just to cross the continental U.S.A.? And, we're trying to fathom the technology of the inhabitants of some planet surrounding a sun several 100s of light years away, at least, that has developed the ability for space travel? We're talking about greater than the speed of light here, or inter-dimensional travel or some form of technology that ... we may have not thought of, as of yet (OOOO! is that possible? Something we have not thought of, as of yet?) Oh, but they can "crash." Oops! Like it's an event that may not have been predicted.

It was only 50 years ago that we, as a general group, realized that we weren't being fair to other creatures, other homo sapiens, just like us. It was only in the late 1950s and 1960s that the Civil Rights Movement occurred. We have yet to figure out our relationship with a lot of Others just like us (Native Americans and the people in thee Middle East for examples). This is only on one planet with only "us" here. We still have poverty and people dying from diseases who could be treated if only we get our act together. We are still killing ourselves by our own waste, not to mention intentionally, by wars etc.

Given all this, consider the logic of that alien spacecraft orbiting earth that threw itself on the course of a meteor to save earth. Do not too bright!

I so wish this was true. I want off this planet, I dont belong here and I want to go home. I believe our desire for Utopia is simply homesickness. SO family if your reading this HI YALL.
