Is it possible that the 1909 explosion in Tunguska was not an asteroid but...?

In 1909, Nicola Tesla was conducting wireless energy transmission experiments, a fore-runner to the government's HAARP technology. Could the destruction which occurred in Tunguska, Siberia, have been the result of an experiment gone wrong, and is there the possibility that the same mistake could occur again if the government is allowed to employ the HAARP technology?

    Not really.

    There *were* witnesses to the Tunguska event. People in "nearby" towns saw the fireball track across the sky, heard the blast, and were even knocked down by the shock wave from the burst. It was only due to the remote location, bad science and marketing spin that this is was ever a "mysterious" event.

    Sure. It's also possible that if I stomp my foot, it will open a wormhole to another universe and everything will fall in. That doesn't relieve you of the burden of proof that the possibility is significant before anything is done to stop it.
