This was followed by a flash of light, a sound like artillery fire, and a shockwave that knocked people off their feet and shattered windows. Something had exploded in the forest near the Podkamennaya Tunguska River, with energy equivalent to 10-15 megatons of TNT (However, experiments in 2007 suggested that the blast may have actually been smaller, at "only" 3-5 megatons). |
