Where would you find a meteor?

The Hayden Planetarium in Manhattan has a very nice one that you can go and see if you wish. If you would like to find one that nobody else has found yet, I can't really predict where a meteor will fall, since they can fall anywhere.

What is the shape and structure of a meteor in space?

Technically, a "meteor" is the streak of light caused by a space rock fallingthroughthe atmosphere and being heated to incandescence by friction and compression. So there are no meteors in space.You're probably wondering about a "meteoroid", which is a space rock drifting through space, which would become a meteor if it ever hits the atmosphere. We don't know, because we've never had a chance to examine one close-up in space. But we expect that they would all be different, depending on how and where they were formed - or were blasted apart by the collision of other larger space rocks.


What is the famous meteor?

There are plenty of famous meteors, to know which one specifically you are speaking about, I would need a name. The most famous is probably the one that many believe killed all the dinosaurs. This meteor is estimated to be about 6 miles wide, and created a crater about 110 miles across. Many believe that the Chicxulub Crater in Yucatan, Mexico is this meteor.

What happens if a meteor goes through earth?

Life as we know it would disappear. It's not possible for a meteor to punch a clean hole through the Earth. So a meteor big enough would crack the Earth into pieces. These might eventually be pulled together again by gravity, but the planet would be unrecognizable.

No, a single meteor would not be able to take over the whole state of Florida. Meteors are space rocks that burn up in the atmosphere or impact the Earth's surface in a localized area. The size of a meteor would not be large enough to cover an entire state like Florida.
