Hi all,<br />First post, please be kind <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /><br /><br />I was wondering if there is any catalogue/web site/ whatever listing the confirmed, or suspected, impacts upon the Earth by objects from space in recorded history? By impacts, I mean air burst, or other events that left tangiable marks upon the Earth, like debris or craters. I'm not really interested in the fireballs as seen by amateur video camera men in recent years.<br /><br />The only one that I could thing of was the 1908 Tunguska event, but then I found out about a few more this century. I suppose the one thing that could cause identification of events in our recorded history difficult was the prevalent scientific view a few centuries back saying that stones could not fall from the sky! I wonder how many impacts/explosions have been attributed to thunder or lightning...?<br /><br />Best wishes<br /><br />Paul
