The Chelyabinsk meteorite collapsed to Earth 5 years ago, and a PR campaign made it famous to this day. Many Russians lined up in a kilometer-long queue in order to touch a piece of the space "guest", but experts do not share this euphoria, since the asteroid seemed to appear out of nowhere. Its approach was not recorded by the planetary tracking system of all space agencies in the world.
Even five years after the fall, the Chelyabinsk meteorite remains one of the most mysterious cosmic bodies that have ever fallen to the surface of the Earth. Experts still cannot determine exactly where he came from and what he is.
A meteorite crashed onto our planet on February 15, 2013. After entering the dense layers of the atmosphere, it was about 17 meters in diameter with a weight of at least ten tons. At about 15 km, it began to disintegrate. The blast wave after the fall of the alien "guest" twice circled the globe, and in the epicenter of the fall - the Chelyabinsk region, thousands of people were injured.
However, the destruction could have been more if the meteorite fell entirely, experts say. According to UFO hunters, aliens saved humanity from large-scale destruction as a result of falling to the surface of such a huge space body. It was they who shattered the meteorite in the air. However, this is the last warning for earthlings, meanwhile, independent experts warn. According to their calculations, the end of the world for the Earth will come in 2036 due to the fall of the giant asteroid Apophis. Moreover, scientists all over the world know about this, but are silent, since they do not yet have the opportunity to prevent the inevitable death of humanity.
Such assumptions are indirectly confirmed by scientists themselves, who admit that if an asteroid appears near the Earth during the day from the direction of the Sun, it will be impossible to see it.
