Exploration of other worlds has helps us learn about the impact of space objects. When an object strikes the surface of a larger object in space, it explodes and leaves behind a round pit called an impact crater.

How does space exploration destroy earth?

Space exploration does not directly destroy Earth. However, some concerns related to space exploration include potential environmental impacts of rocket launches, generation of space debris, and the extraction of resources from other celestial bodies that could lead to ethical and ecological concerns. Efforts are being made to mitigate these impacts through responsible space exploration practices such as debris removal and sustainability initiatives.


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


Objects beyond earth's atmosphere?

Objects beyond Earth's atmosphere include satellites, space stations, spacecraft, and celestial bodies such as planets, stars, and galaxies. These objects play important roles in scientific research, communication, navigation, and exploration of space.


Is the weight earth changing?

Not quickly. The only way that mass is added to the Earth is meteor impacts. Objects sent into space could reduce the total mass of the Earth, but not enough for it to matter on a macroscopic scale.


Effects of space exploration on environment?

Space vehicles don't really leave Earth's orbit often enough to cause a considerable amount of damage to the environment. Scientists believe each rocket launched into space delivers ozone and may affect the stratosphere.


Is a atroid igonna hit earth?

At this time, there are no known asteroids on a collision course with Earth. Scientists continuously monitor near-Earth objects to identify potential threats and are working on developing ways to mitigate any potential impacts.


How has comets helped the study of space?

Comets come from the coldest parts of the universe and contain ice and organic materials. Scientists believe that impacts from comets on earth are responsible for contributing to organic materials and possibly life on earth.


What is the earth's pull on an objects?

The earth's pull on objects is the force of gravity.


Is it possible to use magnetic fields to prevent earth impacts by near earth objects?

This would not be a good way to go about it. Not all near Earth objects are metallic, they can be rocky or even contain volatile substances if they are cometary in origin. Even if they are made of nickel and iron, and are ferromagnetic, all a magnetic field can do is attract them, it cannot repel them. So, if you established your magnetic planetary protection device on the moon, and you had enough power to generate a sufficiently strong magnetic field, you could then attract near Earth objects to the moon rather than to the Earth. But there are simpler ways to deal with such objects.


Why are meteor impacts not common on earth?

Meteor impacts are VERY common on Earth. However, the erosive forces of wind and water tend to wear away the smaller impacts fairly quickly, and the very large impacts are less common.


What is the measurement of the pull of gravity between the earth and the earth objects?

I assume you mean "between Earth and other objects". That is called the WEIGHT of the objects.


What is an asteroid's purpose?

Asteroids are celestial objects in our solar system that orbit the sun. They play a role in the formation and evolution of planets by delivering water and organic molecules to Earth, influencing its climate through impacts, and potentially containing resources for future space exploration and mining.
