No. The meteor would vaporize before hitting the Sun, and the vapor would be carried away by the solar wind. Even very large asteroids or comets are minuscule in size compared to the mass of the Sun.
After a meteoroid hits Earth, it is called a meteorite. This is when the space rock survives its journey through the atmosphere and reaches the planet's surface.
After it hits Earth, a meteoroid is called a meteor.
"A meteroid that hits earth's atmosphere becomes a meteor. When it comes to rest on the earth's surface it is then known as a meteorite."Actually, the portion of a meteor that hits the surface of the earth is called a meteorite. A meteor is the steak of light we see acrss the sky, which can be part of a comet, a meteoroid, an asteroid, or any other interplanetary debris we may see from earth. However, a meteor is the larger part that can be seen, but not the actual portion that hits the earth. (Source: Astonomy Today, 6th edition by Chassion & McMillan)
When smaller stars explode (like our Sun), they leave a nebula cloud by releasing their gas and they become a small but dense white dwarf star.When big stars explode (like Betelgeuse), they have a massive explosion called a supernova and the core of the star turns into a black hole or a pulsar.
burn up in its atmosphere due to the friction and heat generated during entry. This process, known as atmospheric entry, causes the meteorite to disintegrate or explode before reaching the Earth's surface, reducing the impact damage.
A meteor becomes a meteorite when it hits Earth's surface.
because stars can fall on any planet & harm it as a meteorite
No. Only the most massive stars explode.
stars explode
Depends on which 5 stars
Meteorite
It is a meteorite.
a meteorite
A meteorite.
A meteorite! hey here is a joke! if a meteor that hits is a meteorite what do you call one that misses? a meteorworong!
Some stars do. They can be nova or supernova stars, depending on the scale of the explosion.
Some stars explode in a supernova.
