Russian Scientists Claim Find of Alien "Wreckage" at Tunguska Blast Site

I usually don't link "alien" news, but when alien "wreckage" is linked to the Tunguska fireball, I just can't resist.

Whoops! Loose shit on the spelling of Tunguska. My apologies.

By the way: I don't believe in aliens or such. But the linkage of the Tunguska fireball to an "alien spacecraft" discovered by "Russian scientists" is just too damn pulp-fiction lurid to be ignored.

I'm sure the story is fake, but it's a terrific opening five minutes for a movie.

I wonder if that "wreckage" is anything like the advanced otherwordly technology found at Roswell (i.e. foil, tape, and balsa wood).

I usually don't link 'alien' news...

Yeah...I'd noticed the strange omission.

Mighty convenient "timing" that you start linking it now.

I remember reading in some book i had as a kid about some kind of strange disk found at Tunguska, any truth to that or is it all tin foily?

Hey Nick, I question your motivation for questioning Ace's timing!

Posted by: Senator PhilABuster on August 12, 2004 01:47 PM

Tunguska, please. I have no idea where Tungusta might be.

Sorry to go all picky on you, but I did a double-take, wondering 1) where the hey Tungusta was (thinking South America) and 2) why were Russian scientists involved?

Posted by: Dianna on August 12, 2004 03:32 PM

Tungusta is on that part of the Mekong Delta lying just between Vietnam and Cambodia.

Posted by: Nicholas Kronos on August 12, 2004 03:46 PM

I don't know... I'm still trying to figure out a way to blame president Bush for this.

Posted by: Cpl. Menno on August 12, 2004 03:53 PM

Perhaps. . . Bush Knew?

Posted by: on August 12, 2004 03:54 PM

Oyvin Glayvin.

First of all, it's Tunguska, NOT Tungusta.

Second of all, it's in Siberia, which might explain why Russian scientists were involved.

Thirdly, if you google it, you'll see, as ace knows, that it was only the most spectacular cosmic event to strike earth in recorded history.

Having said that, the article leaves me intrigued but skeptical.

Posted by: Brian B on August 12, 2004 04:13 PM

Oyvin, you're killing me. I always thought I was a vast well of useless knowledge but now I see that I was kidding myself.

Posted by: lauraw on August 12, 2004 04:28 PM

Heh. That lack of a social life as a kid is finally paying off.

Posted by: Brian B on August 12, 2004 04:30 PM

Brian, read the first line. I was kidding Ace about the mis-spelling.

Trust me. I know about Tunguska. I know where it is, and I read the story.

Posted by: Dianna on August 12, 2004 05:23 PM

Dianna,

DOH!

Sorry, I missed that.

Posted by: Brian B on August 12, 2004 05:35 PM

Hmmm. Maybe you'd better stick to taxonomy.

Posted by: lauraw on August 12, 2004 10:07 PM

Taxonomy? What does stuffing dead animals and mounting them on your wall have to do with anything? :)

Posted by: Sobek on August 13, 2004 12:40 AM

But were the aliens gay and did they hire incompetent "foreign nationals" to positions of high security, sexually harrass them, engender several lawsuits, and then tearfully resign?

Posted by: Sailor Kenshin on August 13, 2004 09:32 AM

My facts were right, it was my ability to note the sarcasm in Dianna's tone that failed me.

And taxonomy? No thanks. I have no interest in studying the IRS codes.

Posted by: Brian B on August 13, 2004 12:12 PM

Ace, its your blog...but the natives are getting restless and silly. Note the puns.

Groaners are a symptom of topic fatigue.

Posted by: lauraw on August 13, 2004 02:58 PM

lauraw,

I'll have you know I sling groanworthy puns all the time, not just when I'm bored.

Not that that's a good thing, necessarily. Just sayin'.

Posted by: Brian B on August 13, 2004 05:54 PM

I'm sure the story is fake, but it's a terrific opening five minutes for a movie.

Indeed it did.

The Short Unhappy Life of a Russian Soldier: Why recruits die in 20-30 minutes
Interesting video. Some key parts: drones were responsible for 70-80% of all battlefield deaths in mid-2025, and I bet it's higher now. The Russian army is incredibly corrupt. Men get assigned to the most dangerous frontline units, the "Storm" units, unless they pay a superior $2,000 to be assigned to a different unit. Furthermore, there is often no real training for recruits -- commanders pocket the money that would have gone towards fuel and ammo costs incurred during training. Much "training" consists just of taking a single picture of soldiers doing something soldier-y, like fording a river, and publishing that as proof that the training was done. Even when it is done, training is only two weeks long.

FDA is providing an update regarding the sample of lettuce supplied by Taylor Farms de Mexico which was reported positive on July 18, 2026. Due to the complexity in detection of Cyclospora, FDA laboratory experts re-reviewed the sample results and have concluded that the finding does not represent true amplification and should be considered a false positive. Information about the sample has been removed from the July 18, 2026, update below. FDA has notified Taylor Farms and continues working with the firm to ensure product implicated in this outbreak has been removed from the market. FDA and state partners continue to collect and analyze product samples. As of July 19, 2026, there are no confirmed positive sample results for product testing for Cyclospora.
