Yes, there has been a lot of astroids that hit the earth. Most of them are small.
Yes. We have had several on record and probably many more that were not recorded.
No human has ever traveled through the asteroid belt, as it is filled with millions of small rocky bodies that could pose a danger to spacecraft. Spacecraft that have traveled through the asteroid belt, such as NASA's Dawn mission, are designed to navigate safely around the asteroids.
An asteroid is a rocky object in space. It may be a broken part of a planet. The smallest observed asteroids are 10 meters in size . There may be many asteroids smaller than this but they can not be detected yet and also have not been observed yet.
An asteroid could hit Earth anywhere, but the most likely impact locations are in the ocean due to the vast coverage of water on our planet. Cities along coastlines are also at higher risk. However, the probability of a direct impact on a populated area is very low.
Yes, the Earth has been hit by asteroids in the past. These impacts have been responsible for mass extinction events and have left large impact craters on the Earth's surface. Fortunately, the likelihood of a large asteroid impact in the near future is low due to monitoring and detection efforts.
yes! it depend to gravitational pull and the weight of an asteroid
Almost certainly.
Yes. We have had several on record and probably many more that were not recorded.
It was not discovered, it was assumed until proved otherwise.
No human has ever been to Pluto. In fact, no human has ever been beyond the Earth's orbit.
No human has ever visited Mars. None have ever been further than Earth's moon.
It was recently discovered in an ancient fossilized creek bed in Mongolia that the dinosaurs called it "OH $H!+"All kidding aside, it was named Ceres discovered in 1801 by Giuseppe Piazzi

1991 BA is the closest and smallest asteroid yet observed outside the Earth's atmosphere.---- Reference.http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v354/n6351/abs/354287a0.html
The Moon and Earth
No planet ever existed where the asteroid belt is. The mass is insufficient for a planet to have formed from all that debris.
Oh, my friend, let's replace the term "worth" with "beauty" and talk about the stunning asteroid belt gently floating in space. Each asteroid has its unique value in the balance of our galaxy's harmony. Every discovery brings us a step closer to understanding the vast and serene beauty of our universe.
