Are meteor storms dangerous?
Meteor showers are caused by tiny bits of dust or small objects burning up in the atmosphere. Usually they are not dangerous as the item is completely destroyed when it burns up. Sometimes larger objects pass through and some objects reach the surface of Earth. It would take something very large to do any real damage, so a standard meteor shower is not dangerous. They are something to go out and watch and enjoy.
