WHAT EVENT happened in siberia in 1908?

In 1908, the Tunguska event occurred in Siberia, resulting from a massive explosion believed to be caused by the airburst of a small comet or asteroid over a remote forest. The explosion flattened an estimated 2,000 square kilometers of trees and caused significant environmental changes, but miraculously, there were no confirmed human casualties due to the sparsely populated area. This incident remains one of the largest impact-related events in recorded history.
