Very little, apart from giving a few people some good reason to go searching in unpopulated areas.
They have also added to our knowledge of the early solar system and also the composition of Mars in the early stages of formation.
I suppose in a *very* small way they have added to the mass of the Earth - possibly a couple of tons per year, but we have "ejected" far more than that back into space.
Yes. There are several meteor 'showers' every year.
Yes, people living on the West Coast of the United States can see meteor showers, as long as the skies are clear and the meteor shower is visible from that location. Meteor showers occur at different times throughout the year and can be visible from various parts of the world.
Meteor showers are caused by Earth passing through the debris left behind by comets or asteroids as they orbit the sun. When these small particles of dust and rock enter Earth's atmosphere, they burn up, creating the streaks of light known as meteors.
While I cannot attest to a particular date, there is scientific basis for scientists predicting meteor showers. Meteors are small bits of rock and/or metal burning up in Earth's atmosphere. Meteor showers occur when Earth's orbit brings it through a cloud of such small objects, since scientists know where these clouds are, they can predict meteor showers.
On Earth meteor showers occur when we pass through dirt in space, usually from the debris or remains of a comet's tail. Any planet that passes through a dirty part of space and then has that dirt burn out above it will be a place that you can see meteor showers.
Meteor showers are not man made
There are yearly meteor showers, in relation to taurus.

Could be Draco. The meteor showers are called Draconids.
No connection. Meteor showers are debris from space striking the earth.
No. Meteorologists study weather. An astronomer would predict meteor showers.
