When can you see meteorites?

Meteorites can be seen when they enter Earth's atmosphere and create bright streaks of light, known as meteors or shooting stars. Your chances of seeing a meteorite depends on factors like time of day, location, and visibility conditions. Some meteor showers, like the Perseids in August or the Geminids in December, offer higher probabilities of seeing meteorites.

There are 3 main classifications of meteorites; Stony-iron meteorites, Iron meteorites and Stony meteorites.

Would you use a classification paragraph or a division paragraph to let your friend know how to differentiate meteors meteorites and asteroids?

I would use a division paragraph to explain the differences between meteors, meteorites, and asteroids. This type of paragraph breaks down the subject into different categories, making it easier for the reader to understand the distinctions between each.


Are all meteorites magnetic?

Meteorites fall into two classes, stony and iron. There is a belt of meteoric material near Mars, from which many of our meteorites come. Perhaps the debris from a broken planet? The iron meteorites, in fact iron-nickel mixtures, are magnetic. the stony meteorites are not. Have a look for Bode's Law in a reference source.
