Tunguska Event: Spherules

Scientific paper

Eighty years after the event, the Tunguska explosion of June 1908, has not been satisfactorily explained. The cosmic bolide, supposedly responsible for the event, has not yet been identified but numerous magnetic spherules have been recovered in the vicinity of the explosion site. Eighty spherules have been studied and compared with the Fe-Ni spherules from the steady micrometeoroid flux. Ninety percent of them cannot be identified with any known micrometeorite family; their low average iridium content rather suggests a terrestrial origin.
