Finland Explosion

[blobrana]

Hum,
The word on the street says that a large (300 meters diameter) impact crater has been found in the Mantokoski river in Utsjoki, northern Finland, approximately one kilometre from the closest settled area.
To create such a crater you need a very big meteorite.
It was estimated that the impact occurred before Christmas.

Anyone know anything about it?

Somewhere in this Area

 Hum,
Yeah, 300 metre strewn field is perhaps a more likely explanation...

And at 1 euros per gram there is enough lying around to pay for a package holiday to Finland...

Hum,
From initial reports of a 300-metre crater - it would require the force of a small nuclear bomb (or a large 20-metre rock)

However that possibility seem unlikely now.

The information is still a bit sketchy, but a possibility offered by a few ppl is that it was a large methane bubble that broke through to the surface.

Hum,
similar to a monty python sketch.

Hum,
an interesting idea.

It’s an area that got nothing to bomb, but a good area to dump them.

But, i imagine that returning bombers would normally dump un-dropped bombs into the sea, or as soon as they were on the return journey.
