In science, a "speck of dust" typically refers to a tiny particle of solid matter suspended in the air. These particles can vary in size and composition, ranging from microscopic particles like pollen or soot to larger particles like sand or debris. In scientific contexts, the term "speck of dust" is often used to describe these small particles when discussing their effects on air quality, atmospheric processes, or their potential impact on human health.
There is no opposite, A shooting star is a speck of dust from outer space burning up in the atmosphere from frictional heating.
The quote "We are but an infinitesimal speck on the eyelash of the universe" is attributed to American author and astrophysicist Carl Sagan. Sagan was known for popularizing science and astronomy through his books and television series, such as "Cosmos: A Personal Voyage."
Meteorology is the science concerned with weather generally. From the Greek originally, meteros meaning 'from on high'.
Astronomy, from the greek astra, meaning stars.
The Gravity at the point of the Earth's (former) position would disappear and would be replaced with that of the speck of dust.As a result the moon and all orbiting satellites would no longer be in an orbit and would start traveling in the direction they were traveling at the time the earth disappeared.A small gravity shear would also propagate outwards and would affect orbits and paths of objects close by.Also the solar wind and particle eddies that were previously created by the presence of the Earth would disappear.
You dont measure dust and i dont why youde need to
Please help me get this speck of dust out of my eye.

A speck of dust is about as long as 1 millimeter; a speck of dust can be found in all houses.
Wood. Just as speck is a small particle of dust, a sliver is a small piece of wood.
metal
not much :)
A single dust particle is called a "speck" or "particle."
Polish. Just as speck is a small particle of dust, silver is a type of material that can be polished to a shiny finish.
Mom cleaned so well there wasn't a speck of dust left in the house.
an atom is about a trillion times smaller then a speck of dust.
