There are a few people who wear a helmet or stay inside all the time for that reason.

But roughly half of all the other people on Earth realize that the atmosphere is our

main protection and there's not much we can do to improve on it, while the other

half are totally oblivious to the whole issue and never think about it.

What layer of the earth has shooting stars and meteorites?

A meteorite is an object from space that has hit the surface of earth. Therefore you will find them at the bottom of the troposphere. However, you were probably refering to meteors. Most meteors are visible in the lower themosphere or upper troposphere.


Are stars meteors visible in the night sky?

Stars are visible in the night sky, but meteors are not always visible. Meteors are small rocks that burn up in the Earth's atmosphere, creating a streak of light known as a shooting star. They are more commonly seen during meteor showers, which occur at specific times of the year.


Can meteors support life?

On their own, no. They are typically not big enough to support an atmosphere, and they often too rocky to support any kind of life, even with an atmosphere. That doesn't mean that they couldn't be used for space mining or as part of a space station someday... they might provide nice raw material for construction bots to build something for us in space. But they aren't ready for people to move in without all of the needs of life being shipping in by us.

Can shooting stars kill people?

So-called shooting stars are actually bits of dust, dirt or debris in space that gets into our atmosphere and burns. As this happens they give the effect of a piece of light shooting across the sky, which people call falling or shooting stars, but which are in fact meteors. Most of them burn up in the atmosphere. Sometimes some bits get right through and land on Earth, where they are called meteorites. In theory they could hit someone, but as they are usually so small, they would do little damage. There are alleged reports of people being killed, though they are difficult to substantiate. There are also reports of animals having being hit and killed, but again these are extremely rare and difficult to sustantiate too.
