What about the theory of a mini-black hole? That would explain no crater.

Watch it you'll get thrown off the radio.

Actual the theory for years has been that the thing exploded about a mile are more above ground, they say that is why the flash was seen in Britain and there was really no crater.

Personally, I've always thought comet, which would seem consistent with an above ground explosion and the flattening of such a huge swath of forest. The "crater" delineated by the lake might have taken the final central punch of momentum generated by the object, pushing atmosphere - and that much lithosphere - out of the way, as it were, as it's physical attributes had already melted.

Just a hunch, that I've always been drawn to.

But they do have a crater ... sort of ... the funnel shaped crater.

Too clever by half. The current airburst theory (correct or not) is more likely.
