Description: SCP-5153 refers to a large asteroid impact that occurred on 30 June 1908 near the Podkamennaya Tunguska River in Russia. SCP-5153 was caused by a fifteen kilometer meteor entering Earth's atmosphere before spontaneously demanifesting approximately seven to ten kilometers above the planet's surface. The energy required to displace SCP-5153 resulted in a 15 megaton explosion that destroyed 2,150 km2 of the Siberian taiga and killed three people.
