What else can I help you with?
The moon has no what to make meteors burn up?
Atmosphere.
Why do meteors shine?
Meteors shine because of gases that burn in Earth's atmosphere. The friction caused by traveling in the atmosphere ignites the gases.
Does the atmosphere protect us from meteors?
It does to some extent. Rocky meteors typically burn up as they pass through our thick atmosphere. Nickel-iron meteors can burn up, but usually have the mass to punch through to some degree.
Do the meteors burn up in the mesosphere?
Meteors burn up in the Mesosphere because of friction between the meteors and the molecules located here. The mesosphere is the coldest part of the Earth's atmosphere.
How do meteors disappear?
Meteors do not just disappear. Meteors either land somewhere on Earth out of site or they just burn up in the atmosphere.
Where to meteors happen?
Meteors are seen in the sky when huge space junk enter the atmosphere and burn up.
What layer of the atmosphere to meteors burn up in?
Meteors typically burn up in the mesosphere layer of the atmosphere, which is located between the stratosphere and thermosphere. This region is where most meteors vaporize due to the friction created by the high-speed entry through the Earth's atmosphere.
When do meteors burn up?
They may burn up while travelling through the earth's atmosphere.
Why does mercury have the most craters?
It has no atmosphere to burn up incoming meteors
Where do meteors burn up while entering the earth's atmosphere?
yes
How does your atmosphere protect us?
Our atmosphere also reflects UV and makes meteors burn up.
Are meteors extinct?
No, meteors are not extinct. Meteors are commonly seen in the Earth's atmosphere as shooting stars when they burn up upon entry. They are remnants of debris from space that enter the Earth's atmosphere.
