Is A meteor is a piece of an asteroid that exploded long ago A correct sentence?
Yes yes it is
Did a meteor hit Canada?
Yes, every day. Most of them are pretty small; the average meteor that you see in the sky is the size of a grain of rice or smaller. Bigger one do land occasionally. But about 15000 years ago, there's evidence that a fairly large meteor, or comet, or asteroid, DID hit northern Canada, which may have caused the "Younger Dryas" mini-ice age. The extinction of the woolly mammoth appears to have happened at about the same time, and also the disappearance of the pre-Indian "Clovis people" who seem to have been the only humans on the North American continent at the time.
Why is Meteor Crater in Arizona still visible when most impact craters created by meteorites hitting Earth are not?
The Barringer Meteor Crater near Winslow, Arizona is still very distinct and visible, when other craters are worn away, for a couple of reasons. 1. Meteor Crater is relatively young; about 50,000 years old. The worst of the "intense early bombardment", when many of the Moon's craters were formed, was 3 BILLION years ago, and those early few eons used up most of the available rocks in near-Earth space. Those craters are mostly long gone. 2. Arizona is a desert, and has been since the end of the last ice age. There are few rainstorms, no floods, not a whole lot of natural erosion going on.
What produced the craters in the moon?

What geological features are formed by craters as a result of impact?
Meteor craters.
What would have made the craters on Mars?
The craters on Mars are primarily caused by asteroid and meteor impacts. Mars has a thin atmosphere that offers less protection from incoming celestial objects compared to Earth, allowing impacts to create craters on its surface over millions of years.
Which state is the barringer meteor crater located?
the barringer crater is located in Arizona
How does the moon get craters?
The moon gets craters from meteor's that hit it's surface
Meteor effects on Mars?
Yes. There are meteor craters all over Mars.
Moon is pitted with what?
Nickel Meteor craters .
Why does a moon have more craters than earth?
It has more craters because the earth has an atmosphere vs the moon which does not the atmosphere creates friction on the asteroid which makes it burn up into smaller rocks that can be seen in a meteor shower these rock burn up before they hit he ground.
What burns up before it hit the earths surface meteor or asteroid?
A meteor.
Is an asteroid a meteor that strikes earth surface?
