It gets more hot and burns . then you see the light as it gets closer to the sun.
meteorites-larger chunks that land on earth's surface are called ''meteorites''meteors-at certain times,we see more meteors than usual and they appear as a ''showers''
Although we can not see them, we know from certain meteorites (Nickel/Iron meteorites) and from the density measurements of the rocks we see at the Earth's surface compared to the mass of the whole planet that the two most abundant elements in the Earth's core must be Iron and Nickel. Iron being the predominant of the two.
If it is close enough then it can be seen
all the time, but the meteorites just burn up in the atmosphere, this is caused by the thick atmosphere on earth, which generate a huge friction between the meteorites and the air molecules. You can actually see the it burning up in the sky, commonly known as falling stars. But it is not all meteors, which burn up in the atmosphere, it just have to be big enough to sustain its shape all the way to the ground, but this only happens rarely. but as you can see on mars it has a lot of craters, and that is simply because the atmosphere is much thinner.
According to some religious beliefs, people in heaven can see Earth.
close by bright stars
None. Saturn's rings are not made up of meteorites. See related question below.
The terminology of space debris entering the Earth's athmosphere is a question of timing. Outside the athmosphere, the debris is considered a 'meteoroid.' Upon entering the athmosphere and while falling to the Earth, the debris is called a 'meteor.' After striking the Earth, whatever material did not disintegrate is called a 'meteorite.' So when you see a 'shooting star,' it is not a meteorite. It is technically a 'meteor.' Only after you find it on the ground is it a 'meteorite.'

shooting stars are meteorites are comets or meteorites which are made out of large chunks of ice or out of rock
Meteorites can be seen when they enter Earth's atmosphere and create bright streaks of light, known as meteors or shooting stars. Your chances of seeing a meteorite depends on factors like time of day, location, and visibility conditions. Some meteor showers, like the Perseids in August or the Geminids in December, offer higher probabilities of seeing meteorites.
Shootings stars, also known as meteorites, reside at 100 miles above the Earths' surface. Typically, though ,the farthest you can see a shooting star from Earth is 70 miles away.
