A sudden fall
3
It all happened on June, 30, 1908 at around 7 a.m. in Siberia. People were
having breakfast, when they saw a space object in the sky. It was like a
giant ball. In fact, it was a meteorite. It was making a very loud noise. It was
flying over the sky when suddenly it exploded. People were really
frightened because the trees were falling down, and the windows in the
houses were breaking.
The remains of the meteorite were never discovered. Many people tried to
solve the mystery of the Tunguska event. There are many theories, but no
one can be completely sure about what happened on that day in reality.
