The athmosphere


Is the Earth's atmosphere important to us?

The Earths athmosphere is one of the most important things to us. The athmosphere is very delicate and contains all the protection we need from meteorites, UV rays, and allows the Earth to sustain life.


What are meteorites that entered our atmosphere and hit earth without burning up called?

The terminology of space debris entering the Earth's athmosphere is a question of timing. Outside the athmosphere, the debris is considered a 'meteoroid.' Upon entering the athmosphere and while falling to the Earth, the debris is called a 'meteor.' After striking the Earth, whatever material did not disintegrate is called a 'meteorite.' So when you see a 'shooting star,' it is not a meteorite. It is technically a 'meteor.' Only after you find it on the ground is it a 'meteorite.'
