Why are there so many meteorites near earth?
There are hardly any comets, meteorites or asteroids near earth. There are only a few that are millions of kilometers from earth. There are a few that pass earth a bit closer because of the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
Is the earth any heavier now then when it started?
Yes. It is heavier through the bombardment by meteors, asteroids, comets, and another planet (which led to the formation of the Moon).
Will the next comet cause the coasts to flood within 100 miles inland?
There are comets around all the time. In order to have this much of a cataclysmic effect, it would need to pass very close to the earth, if not hit it entirely. At the moment, we do not know of any comets on this trajectory.
Is it possible comets may have any influence in the earths' weather or cycles even the orbit variances?
Comets have a very low mass compared to Earth, so any affect they will have on Earth is from impacts which will affect the global weather.
Does any comets ever pass earth?
Yes! All the time. Although comets tend to have very elongated orbits which bring them close to the sun which slingshots them far out into space and back again. NASA's Jet Propulsion laboratory has a great site for tracking objects in our solar system. solarsystem.nasa.gov/eyes/
Would earth have any oceans if it weren't for impacts from comets from the outer solar system?
Yes
Are any comet strikes a source of the ocean water?
I don't think any COMETS have struck the earth, but METEORITES have. Comets are icy balls of gas and dust that fly around the sun like Halley's comet.
Why does Mars have water?
Nobody truly knows. It is likely that - as is the case for the Earth - any water was 'delivered' there by comets.
Which US city does the prime meridian pass through?
It doesn't pass through any US cities but it does pass through London, England.
What state of matter does sound energy pass through?
Sound can pass through any state of matter.
How many lines can pass through A?
An infinite number of lines can pass through any given point.
Are there currently any visible comets in your solar system?
There are no visible comets at this time.
