When discussing the Tunguska event with me, it is very important for you to conduct a very thorough research, and you haven't done that.
The author of your reference V.A. Bronshten has no idea of the extraordinary research performed by none other than Dr. Felix Ziegel, aerodynamics professor at the Moscow Institute of Aviation who took into account ALL EYEWITNESS reports and physical data, and concluded:
"before the blast the Tunguska body described in the atmosphere a tremendous arc of about 375 miles in extent (in azimuth)" - that is, it "carried out a maneuver." No natural object is capable of such a feat.
Moreover, V.A. Bronshten does not include the ballistic analysis performed by Florensky and Zolotov:
The information acquired by the Florensky and Zolotov expeditions about the ballistic shock effect on the trees provides a strong basis, in some scientists' view, for a reconstruction of an alteration in the object's line of flight. In the terminal phase of its descent, according to the most recent speculations, the object appears to have approached on an eastward course, then changed course westward over the region before exploding. The ballistic wave evidence, in fact, indicates that some type of flight correction was performed in the atmosphere.
Read this one carefully:
http://www.andras-nagy.com/ufo03/10.htmIt is unfortunate that V.A Bronshten did not take into account these observations.
And V.A. Bronshten committed even more pronounced mistakes/errors in his analysis:
http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1945-5100.1999.tb01384.x/pdf (Bronshten thinks the explosion was caused by a comet)
The event at Tunguska COULD NOT have been caused by a meteorite, comet or asteroid:
In 1983, astronomer Zdenek Sekanina published a paper criticizing the comet hypothesis. He pointed out that a body composed of cometary material, travelling through the atmosphere along such a shallow trajectory, ought to have disintegrated, whereas the Tunguska body apparently remained intact into the lower atmosphere.
The chief difficulty in the asteroid hypothesis is that a stony object should have produced a large crater where it struck the ground, but no such crater has been found.
Fesenkov (1962) claims, "According to all evidence, this meteorite moved around the Sun in a retrograde direction, which is impossible for typical meteorites...." Fesenkov notes that meteorites rarely hit the earth in the morning, because the morning side faces forward in the planet's orbit. Usually the meteorite overtakes the earth from behind, on the evening side.
Moreover, professor Giuseppe Longo (University of Bologna) examined resin from the core of trees in the blast zone. Looking at trapped particles within the resin the team found high levels of materials that could not be found in comets.
HERE IS A CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF THE CATASTROPHIC ERRORS MADE BY V.A. BRONSHTEN IN ANALYZING THE TUNGUSKA EVENT:
http://saturniancosmology.org/files/tunguska/zlobin.note.txtThe distortion of Tunguska's trajectory was produced mainly by russian
astronomer and member of Committee of meteorites V.A.Bronshten in the
middle of XX century. He was expert in astronomy, but he was not expert
in gasdynamics. He did not understand laws of shock waves formation and
made erroneous conclusions concerning azimuth angle of Tunguska's
trajectory in atmosphere due to his imagination about symmetry of
"butterfly-like" region of trees fall. In accordance to V.A.Bronshten,
the Tunguska space body was moving across the sky from east to west.
Unfortunately, a lot of scientists did not notice this blunder and
include erroneous opinion by V.A.Bronshten into their own papers. It was
tragical moment in the history of science, when the blunder by
V.A.Bronshten distorted real imagination about the Tunguska event.
Therefore, the "updated" map of Bronshten amounts to nothing at all: my original map, obtained by Dr. Felix Ziegel stands correct.
As I've already pointed out, the flat earth model would require you to be looking through thousands of km of atmosphere when the extinction co-oefficient limits visibility to 300 km. Your appraisal has been shown to be totally incorrect, as was expected, by the eyewitness accounts from lake Baikal (560 km). Moreover, we are dealing with ball lightning technology.
In any event, what do you think caused the Tunguska explosion?Let us carefully examine the facts which V.A. Bronshten omitted from his poorly conducted research.
Now, the incredible fact that EVEN BEFORE THE DAY OF THE BLAST ITSELF (JUNE 30, 1908), a strange glow was observed over Siberia.

“Scientists recorded the occurrence of some unusual phenomena starting on June 27th, 1908. Some specialists even suppose that these phenomena started as early as June 23 or June 21… Optical anomalies in the atmosphere (strange silvery clouds, brilliant twilights, and intense solar halos) were observed in western Europe, the European part of Russia, and western Siberia, beginning on June 23, 1908."

Geo-magnetic disturbances were already observed even before the explosion!!
Many years later, researchers from Tomsk came across a forgotten publication by a Professor Weber about a powerful geo-magnetic disturbance observed in a laboratory at Kiel University in Germany for three days before the intrusion of the Tunguska object, and which ended at the very hour when the gigantic bolide exploded above the Central Siberian Plateau.
Tesla experimented with the ball lightning ether for YEARS before the Tunguska event; from the Wardenclyffe tower he sent longitudinal waves for days BEFORE the event itself in order to carefully set up the experiment.
One of the best works which does prove the Tunguska explosion was caused by ball lightning:

http://www.teslasociety.com/tunguska.htmhttp://www.tfcbooks.com/articles/tunguska.htmN. Tesla:
My apparatus projects particles which may be relatively large or of microscopic dimensions, enabling us to convey to a small area at a great distance trillions of times more energy than is possible with rays of any kind. Many thousands of horsepower can thus be transmitted by a stream thinner than a hair, so that nothing can resist. This wonderful feature will make it possible, among other things, to achieve undreamed-of results in television, for there will be almost no limit to the intensity of illumination, the size of the picture, or distance of projection.
Tesla said his transmitter could produce 100 million volts of pressure with currents up to 1000 amperes which is a power level of 100 billion watts.
If it was resonating at a radio frequency of 2 MHz, then the energy released during one period of its oscillation would be 100,000,000,000,000,000 (1016) Joules of energy, or roughly the amount of energy released by the explosion of 10 megatons of TNT.
Such a transmitter, would be capable of projecting the energy of a nuclear warhead by radio.
If the light from the Sun could not reach London due to curvature and/or any light reflection phenomena, then certainly NO LIGHT from an explosion which occurred at some 7 km altitude in the atmosphere could have been seen at all, at the same time, on a spherical earth.
