When meteors move in the atmosphere, the relative role of evaporation is characterized by a mass loss parameter. In this work, it is shown that the properties of solutions for the main system of equations of meteor physics [1], along with the results of the independent numerical experiment [2], provide the conclusion that the well-known Tunguska impact event that happened on June 30, 1908 was a giant micrometeor, i.e., an ordinary phenomenon that differed from daily micromete-ors only in the scale expressed by the huge mass of the meteoric body.
