Holy cow. It's the centennial of the Tunguska Blast.

Happy Birthday, not totally understood event!

Research now indicates (http://en.rian.ru/science/20080630/112598958.html) that it was a meteorite.

If it had hit 4 hours 47 minutes later, it would have levelled St. Petersburg.

Well, it's at least misunderstood.

So...what do you buy a large meteoroid or comet fragment that exploded at an altitude of 5–10 kilometres above the Earth's surface, anyways?
