Biggest Meteor Event Might Have Been a Black Hole

Science Discoveries

Imagine a meteor event so massive that it wasn’t a meteor at all, but possibly a tiny black hole! Some scientists think that the famous Tunguska event of 1908—where a huge explosion flattened trees in Siberia—might have been caused by a small black hole passing through Earth. This theory suggests the black hole zoomed in, created chaos, and then zipped right out the other side. While most experts still believe it was a space rock or comet, the black hole idea is pretty wild and cool to think about. If true, it would be one of the most mysterious and powerful events in Earth’s history. Could a black hole really have paid us a visit?
