"The seismic station of Irkutsk as well as other seismic stations of the region did not record the fall. (The Bodaibo station recorded a signal which cannot be easily interpreted). It means, that the Bodaibo impact is much weaker than the Tunguska event of 1908 because the Tunguska collision was recorded by the Irkutsk station. Note that the seismic equipment in 1908 was much worse and the sites are located approximately at the same distance from Irkutsk. The negative seismic data suggests also that a significant crater was not formed by the Bodaibo fireball."
