∙ 12y agoWhen a meteoroid moves through a planet's atmosphere, it can heat up and vaporize due to friction with the air, creating a bright streak known as a meteor or shooting star. If the meteoroid is large enough to survive the entry, it may reach the planet's surface as a meteorite.
Meteorite collisions happen when a meteoroid, which is a space rock traveling through space, enters Earth's atmosphere and survives the journey to impact the Earth's surface. The intense heat generated as the meteoroid travels through the atmosphere can cause it to break apart or explode, resulting in smaller meteorites landing on the Earth.
The transfer of nitrogen from the atmosphere to plants and back occurs through a process called nitrogen fixation. This can happen through the action of nitrogen-fixing bacteria that convert nitrogen gas into a form that plants can use. Once plants assimilate this nitrogen, it can be returned to the atmosphere through processes like denitrification or can be transferred to other organisms through the food chain.
A meteoroid is a space rock drifting through space, not bothering anybody. When a meteoroid gets too close to the Earth, it gets caught in Earth's gravity and starts to burn up from the heat of friction as the meteoroid streaks through the atmosphere at 25,000 miles per hour or more, and glows white-hot as it falls. If it doesn't burn up completely, the space rock that lands on the Earth is called a "meteorite". Hundreds of meteorites are found on Earth every year. Scientists like to study their structure, because they may be remnants from the formation of the solar system. Some meteorites are actually believed to be rocks that were part of Mars or the Moon before some larger meteor or asteroid crashed into the Moon or Mars and splashed martian rocks back into space!
The object would crash into the planet.
The atmosphere will gradually clean itself quite naturally. To allow this to happen one needs to stop polluting it.
Meteoroids enter Earth's atmosphere when they collide with Earth's gravitational field as they travel through space. The speed and angle at which a meteoroid enters Earth's atmosphere determine whether it will burn up as a meteor or hit the surface as a meteorite.
Mercury and Venus would likely have the most extreme temperature differences between their day and night sides due to their lack of atmosphere and proximity to the Sun. Additionally, tidally-locked exoplanets, where one side always faces their star, could also experience vast temperature variations depending on their distance from the star.
Gone.
If wavelengths were allowed through the atmosphere unimpeded, more harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun would reach the Earth's surface, leading to increased risks of skin damage, cataracts, and skin cancer in humans, as well as harm to various organisms and ecosystems. The Earth's atmosphere acts as a shield, absorbing and scattering harmful wavelengths to protect living organisms.
If we moved close enough, the planets atmosphere would disintegrate and we would all die from suffocation or heat.
They say that on that day all the planets will align with the sun and a meteor will go through all the planets including the sun
They would fly randomly through space.

Your mom is the answer to my std.
Absorption: Some of the sun's radiation is absorbed by gases such as ozone and water vapor in the Earth's atmosphere. Scattering: Particles in the atmosphere scatter sunlight in all directions, contributing to the blue color of the sky. Reflection: Some of the sunlight is reflected back into space by clouds, aerosols, and the Earth's surface.
All of the planets in the solar system have auroras, except for Mercury; which has no significant atmosphere where an aurora can form.Auroras have also been observed on some of Jupiter's moons.None of the dwarf planets have any aurora activity.
No. So-called shooting stars or falling stars, are just bits of dirt, debris or dust that enter our atmosphere and burn up. They look like stars as they fly through our atmosphere, hence the names, though they are called meteors. Sometimes they will get through our atmopshere and land on Earth, when they are known as a meteoroid. That could never happen on a star. A star is much hotter than our atmosphere, so any dirt, debris or dust in space would be burnt up long before they reach the star, so could never go right into it.
