How do you know how there are small meteoroids and dust in space?
We know that there are small meteoroids and dust in space because meteorites (meteoroids that survive the atmosphere and land on Earth) exist, and also because we can see meteoroids as meteors (the light coming from a meteoroid burning up in the atmosphere) in the sky.

What celestial objects can a meteoroid come from?
Most of the space rocks which eventually become meteoroids formed in space about the same time as the rest of the solar system did. Probably the most common meteoroids are remnants of comets; we know that several of the annual "meteor showers" are associated with known cometary orbits. Many meteoroids were fragments broken from asteroids when they have collided. And at least a couple of meteorites which have been discovered here on Earth are known to have come from Mars! Asteroid impacts on Mars have knocked rocks and dust completely off of Mars and into orbit around the Sun, where they have impacted the Earth.

Can soil be found in space?
guys actually soil is nothing but dust particle found all over the world and as well as in the whole universe and moreover we guys know that the asteriod belt is made up of asteriods and dust particles . so probably from the above example we conclude that soil(dust particles)is found even in space .
What is a panhandle shack?

Which places of earth will be affected when the meteor hits earth in 2012?
It was obviously nowhere near where I live because I did not even know about it! Nowadays, in a typical year, the earth is hit by approx 15000 tonnes of meteoroids, micrometeoroids and other objects from space.
What are the characteristics of comets meteoroids and asteroids?
comets are icy band cold. ha ha that's all i know
Why are comets asteroids and meteoroids are important to the formation of the solar system?
I think that if we didn't know that meteoroids existed we wouldn't be aware of a meteoroid hitting the earth,but some scientist believe that somehow a big cloud clashed and made the solar system.Ofcourse god made it,but we wouldn't know how there was craters in the moon if we didnt know about meteroids.There just as important as planets
