He walks through a fundamental principle of cosmic impact mechanics: density determines atmospheric penetration. A low-density object, no denser than ice, behaves completely differently than a high-density iron meteorite when it encounters Earth's atmosphere. The iron typically punches straight through and strikes the surface. The ice-like object, by contrast, often detonates in the air before reaching the ground. Tunguska sits at the smaller end of the impact spectrum, where this density variable becomes critical. The size-frequency relationship holds across the board: smaller impactors are far more common, larger ones exponentially rarer. Understanding this spectrum is essential for assessing both historical events and future risk.
