Well i dont know about the superpowers thing, dont want this show to look like "Heroes" (it should be the other way around)
But the crater where the others live in is HUGE .. it would have been a hatch that was at least double the size of the crater. If something implodes, dirt doesnt shoot out, it shoots in so a crater of an Implosion is ALOT smaller then one from an Explosion.
