Yes, asteroids fall to earth all the time, but most of them don't make it through the atmosphere because it perishes and burns up before it can even hit earth, but nothing to worry about because most of the asteroids that hit earth are relatively small. Hope this helps.

Ans is
NASA has confirmed that the 60 meter (or 197 feet) asteroid, which was spotted by Spanish stargazers in February this year,

∙ 14y agoAs far known,no such incident have been recorded in the outer space.It so happens,when an asteroid enters into earths atmosphere,they get burned up due to friction,by which they completely burn up,or may explode.For example,recent Indonesia incident is a good example for it.

Which of these hit the earth comets or asteroids?
It is possible for comets and asteroids to hit Earth, but they are extremely rare events.
What is true about asteroids?
Asteroids orbit the Sun, and some of them can cross the Earth's orbit.
Asteroids relation to earth?
Scientist say that a large sum of asteroids did a big bang and the asteroids created the lava core in the center of the Earth, when the Earth spun the heat cooled down so that bits of rock and environment could form. So according to scientist asteroids created Earth. Basically he means that earth was made from rock
Why do asteroids comets and meteors fall suddenly?
CAUSE.
What are facts about Apollo asteroids?
Apollo asteroids have elliptical orbits that cross Earth's orbit
Are asteroids near earth?
Numerous asteroids are in constant motion around the earth, infinitely tracing their orbits. Occasionally some will collide or break down and fall as bits of meteor to Earth.
Do asteroids fall to earth?
Yes, there was a asteroid storm a couple of weeks ago
What planets do asteroids fall on?
Asteroids can fall on any planet (or moon).
What force allows asteroids to fall from orbit and hit Earth's surface?
The asteroids that strike earth's surface do not fall from orbit. Asteroids have fairly small masses, so their orbits are easily altered by interactions with other objects. Sometimes the orbit of an asteroid is changed such that its orbit intersects Earth's orbit. If the timing works out so that the asteroid reaches the point of interestion at the same time as Earth does, then a collision will result.
Could the world end by asteroids?
I think it might be because it can fall down into the earth one day.
Where are the asteroids when it falls?
I think they're simply called asteroids if that's what you're asking. You may be thinking of meteors though. Meteors when they're in space. Meteorites when they fall to Earth.
Do asteroids come down to earth?
In the beginning of the history of the solar system the Earth was bombarded frequently by asteroids. Now the frequency has diminished significantly but still many tons of "space rocks" fall into the Earth's atmosphere each year some of these hit the ground.
What is the densest form of interplanetary debris?
The densest form of interplanetary debris are asteroids. Asteroids are basically thick rocks that come together from the interplanetary dust and debris that sometimes fall to Earth.
What are the group of asteroids that may occasionally cross earth?
Asteroids that occasionally cross the orbit of Earth are known as Near Earth Asteroids. Asteroids that both cross the orbit of the Earth and are large enough to pose a significant threat in the event of an impact are known as Potentially Hazardous Asteroids.
Are asteroids larger then earth?
asteroids vary in size from rock size to earth size and bigger.
Do asteroids fall out of orbit?
Yes they do.
