RE: Let's Learn Something Cool - Meteor Showers

in #steemstem • 7 years ago

Actually, Earth gets hit very often. Of course these are small size meteorites, and most of it is destroyed in the atmosphere.
I've been to a lecture given by an astronomer who had a job to go to particular Australian desert to search for meteorites - good job isn't it? :D
Cheers!

    I think he didn't read this part: the Earth gets "attacked" by meteoroids on a daily basis

    Thanks for pointing it out :P

    I remembered I got this photo from last year on Letenka, on Fruska Gora mountain in Serbia.
    I was on astronomers camp and this photo was focused on a milky way stripe that was clearly visible. But I was happy of that interruption by shooting star that entered in my frame! :)
