Superstitions in the Philippines regarding comets, asteroids, and meteors do not have a scientific basis. Comets, asteroids, and meteors are celestial bodies that have been studied extensively by astronomers and scientists. They are composed of rock and metal and pose no inherent danger to people on Earth. Superstitions surrounding these phenomena are based on myths and folklore rather than scientific evidence.
Superstitions about asteroids, comets, and meteors have absolutely no scientific basis whatsoever.
Meteors are smaller fragments of asteroids or comets that enter Earth's atmosphere and burn up, causing a bright streak of light. Asteroids are larger rocky objects that orbit the sun. In general, asteroids are bigger than meteors.
Superstitions about comets, asteroids, and meteors often stem from historical interpretations of celestial events as omens or signs, rather than scientific evidence. While these astronomical phenomena can influence Earth through impacts or climatic changes, the superstitions themselves lack a scientific basis. Instead, they reflect cultural beliefs and fears that have evolved over time. In contemporary science, comets and asteroids are understood through physics and astronomy, providing explanations that dispel many of the myths surrounding them.
Meteors are small rocky or metallic objects that burn up in Earth's atmosphere, creating a streak of light. They are typically composed of rock and metal. Asteroids are larger rocky or metallic objects that orbit the sun. They are made up of similar materials as meteors but are much larger in size. Asteroids can collide with other objects in space and sometimes enter Earth's atmosphere as meteors.
Scientists classify asteroids primarily based on their location within the solar system, size, and composition. The main categories include the C-type (carbonaceous), S-type (silicaceous), and M-type (metallic) asteroids. Meteors, on the other hand, are classified based on their origin, such as meteoroids (small fragments from asteroids or comets) and their composition, which can be stony, iron, or stony-iron. When meteoroids enter Earth's atmosphere and produce visible trails, they are referred to as meteors; if they survive and land on Earth, they are called meteorites.

If something is considered a "superstition", that means it is UNSCIENTIFIC. Once there is evidence that something is true, it will no longer be generally considered a superstition.
i believe in superstition because it helps us to be learn more but i think with scientific basis......
Actions we could take to promote a more scientific understanding of comets, asteroids, and meteors would start with education. Educate more in schools, colleges, television, and movies.
Meteors are pieces of asteroids or whole asteroids in the earths atmosphere only. Written By, Brainiocity
Asteroids.
Not exactly. If small lumps of rock stay out in space, they are asteroids. If they enter the earth's atmosphere they are meteors.
The universe
The physical properties of the meteors are that they are rocky and parts of other asteroids.
Meteors, or asteroids.
your gayhigo away
Meteors come from leftover debris of asteroids in the Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter .
