Why do rocks from space not strike us on earth?
if the earth did not have an atmosphere, than many rocks from space would have striked the earth's surface by now.
How may the Earth's position in space be related to the cycle of extinctions earth?

What objects in outer space can hit earth and cause major damage to earth?
Some objects in outer space that can damage the earth could be the following: Asteroids Sun Particles Rocks from other planets Space bombs Fire Other objects flying around in space
What are the differences between comets asteroids and meteorites?
Meteorites are chunks of space rock that fell on earth. They are pieces of rock that can be found on the Earth surface but come from outer space. Asteroids are rocks that travel thru open space, meaning they are pieces of other planets or just boulders flying around in space. If an asteroid (small one) hits earth and is then found by someone then it is an meteorite. A comet is a boulder made of mostly ice that travels thru space at hi speeds and has a defined hyperbola around a star. So Rocks form space on earth are meteorites rocks in space flying around are asteroids and ice traveling realy fast (as a boulder) around a star is a comet.

Comets are the rocks that hit the earth during formation of oceans...
Meteors are rocks from outer space that?
Meteors are rocks from outer space that strike the Earth's atmosphere and are heated to incandescence (glowing heat) by friction. Most are completely vaporized, but some do fall to Earth.

Because rocks are formed deep in the Earth, and sometimes by compressed sand other sedimentary material.
How many space rocks have hit the earth?
Space rocks will have colided with the earth before Homo-Sapians exsisted so it is, unfortunatly, impossible to calculate. But it's happening all the time ... small ones, that is.
