- The Tunguska Event was a massive explosion that took place in Siberia on June 8, 1908. In Werewolf: the Apocalypse continuity, the explosion occurred because the Zmei Trevero broke free from the Rite of Draconic Binding, and the resulting battle with Uktena, Silver Fangs, and a Dreamspeaker mage resulted in the explosion. A completely alternate explanation for this event comes from Mage: the Ascension canon: the explosion was caused by Void Engineers crew trying to investigate curious alien ship, dubbed ‘The Vivo’ by them, and accidentally causing it to generate miniature black hole.
- The Tunguska Event, or Tunguska explosion, was a powerful explosion that occurred near the Podkamennaya (Lower Stony) Tunguska River in what is now Krasnoyarsk Krai of Russia, at around 7:14 a.m. (0:14 UT, 7:02 a.m. local solar time on June 30, 1908 (June 17 in the Julian calendar, in use locally at the time). In the alternate-history of Resistance, it is believed that the object that exploded in Tunguska was carrying the Chimera back to Earth after having left over 60 million years ago.

- The Tunguska Event, or Tunguska explosion, was a powerful explosion that occurred near the Podkamennaya (Lower Stony) Tunguska River in what is now Krasnoyarsk Krai of Russia, at around 7:14 a.m. (0:14 UT, 7:02 a.m. local solar time on June 30, 1908 (June 17 in the Julian calendar, in use locally at the time). The explosion was caused by the air burst of a large object, at an altitude of 510 kilometres (36 miles) above Earth's surface. Estimates of the energy of the blast range from 5 megatons to as high as 30 megatons of TNT, with 10 megatons the most likely about 1,000 times as powerful as the bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan. The explosion knocked over an estimated 80 million trees over 2,150 square kilometres (830 square miles). It is estimated that the earthquake from the blast would have measured 5.0 on the Richter scale, which was not yet developed at the time. An explosion of this magnitude is capable of destroying a large metropolitan area. In the alternate-history of Resistance, it is believed that the object that exploded in Tunguska was carrying the Chimera back to Earth after having left over 60 million years ago.
