Naturally I have been beaten to this.
The latest, according to Russia Today, is that it was a publicity stunt by a Latvian telecommunications company. I like the uplifting press release.
I got a crater that looks just like that.
IN MY PANTS
When a meteorite falls in a field with no witnesses it makes a sucking sound.
Meteorites hate SUVs.
...tried to make it look like a meteorite crater by burning a pyrotechnic compound at the bottom.
I was no where NEAR Latvia at the time and I can Fukbum PROOVE it!
They do, however, seem oddly obsessed with the "tidiness" of the crater. How is such a thing determined? Is there some sort of reference scale with which to measure the expected tidiness of any given impact crater?
'Cause I'm pretty sure I wasn't consulted on that project...

Assuming alien hangers-on, cow-part by cow-part.
Dig we must.
Goddamn grey-trash aliens , never cleaning up after themselves.
OT- Your beloved Another Kiwi is revealing another side of himself and is currently the Guest Poet over here...
Ok... resume crater-hoax talk.
Aw shucks.
Would someone who assesses the tidiness of said holes be a Crater Rater. I rate for Tunguska.
I am awfully happy with the people who bother to come by and entertain me.
YOU'RE ALL STARS! [Weeps with gratitude]
Tunguska, tidy? That place was a tip. Trees knocked over every-which-way because some alien decides to pull the Winnebago over to the side of the road and party. Nothing but grey trash.
a Crater Rater
Crater judges keep disappearing.

I can make you regret that sentiment in TWO comments.
Ask anyone.
Crater judges keep disappearing.
And yet, Hummer Judges proliferate. End Times, pipples.
I suggest mikey send that one baggie to me immediately for safekeeping.

How very Germanic of Herr Doktor Bimmler to want the trees all lined up. IN TAIGA STRIPES!!
badda boom
Worst case of cytiessa I ever seen.
It is tundra my dignity to reply to that.
Kiwi, those poems are pretty fine. The first especially has been haunting me all day.
