It is an interesting idea that life may have come from other parts of the Universe, but there is no evidence that this really is so (nor that it isn't, for that matter). Also, specifically in the case of mushrooms, despite all their differences, they are probably too similar to other life on Earth to have evolved independently from it. If life did come from outer space, it may have been a common ancestor to ALL current life on Earth.

What is the difference of a meteor and a earth grazing meteor?

A meteor is a lump of rock in space. When one of these pieces of rock comes close to the earth it may burn up in the atmosphere as a shooting star. An earth grazing meteor is a meteor that has come close enough to our atmosphere that it starts to burn up, but will still pass us by as the angle is too shallow. It will go back out into space having been deflected by earths gravity.


If the earth is traveling at a speed of 64000 mph and a meteor the same size moving at the same speed collides with earth will you be thrown off?

That depends on where you are on the Earth and where the meteor hits. ________________ Wherever you are on earth, if an object the size of the earth collided directly with us (at that size it would be a rogue planet, I think, rather than a meteor) then certainly all life on earth would come to an end, and likely within minutes.


Why are there meteor shower in the Ursa Major?

There aren't meteor showers "in" the Ursa Major, or "in" any specific constellation. Meteor showers happen here in Earth's atmosphere; sometimes they seem to come from a specific direction (not the "real" direction, but a combination of the meteorites' movement and Earth's movement around the Sun), and are named after the direction (i.e., constellation) from which they come. When meteorites thus come in groups, they are believed to be the remainder of some comet, that happen to cross Earth's path around the Sun.


If a big meteor hit the dinosaurs then how come the earth didn't explode?

It wasn't that big! The theory is that a large meteor hit the Earth and the explosion caused a large amount of dust in the upper atmosphere which caused climate change and the dinosaurs (or most of them) didn't survive.

Does a meteor come from deep inside earth?

No, meteors do not come from deep inside the Earth. Meteors are space rocks that enter Earth's atmosphere and burn up due to friction, creating streaks of light in the sky. Some meteors that survive and land on Earth's surface are known as meteorites.
