meteors pass through earth's atmosphere and if they are large enough to not burn up they hit the earth becoming meteorites, that is about as close as is possible
Objects on Saturn would weigh the same as on Earth because weight is determined by the gravitational pull of a planet, which is the same for both Saturn and Earth. However, the objects would weigh less on Saturn compared to Earth due to Saturn's lower surface gravity.
Meteors. Usually they are very small objects, about the size of a grain of sand.Meteors. Usually they are very small objects, about the size of a grain of sand.Meteors.

When an asteroid or comet crosses Earth's orbital path but doesn't collide with it, it's often due to the object passing through a different point in space at a different time than Earth. Additionally, the vast majority of space around Earth is empty, so the chances of a direct collision are very low. Astronomers track these objects closely to assess any potential collision risk.
All objects irrespective of size that have a mass have gravity.The moon has very little gravity in comparison to the Earth The moons gravity is around 17% of that on Earth whereas the Suns is 2,800 times that of Earth's The effect of the Moons gravity is easiest to recognise with tides on Earth.
At Mars' closest approach to earth, about 4 light-minutes, or 0.00267 light-days (rounded).
NEO's (Near Earth Object)
No planet will.
Comets are difficult to predict; we currently know of no comets that will be visible in 2012, but new ones are discovered periodically. No asteroids that we are aware of will approach the Earth very closely before April 13, 2029, when the asteroid Apophis will come fairly close the Earth. (But it will miss.)
A flat bottom is a hull design which allows the user to approach very closely to shore, or enter shallow waters.
Because the objects are tiny compared with the Earth, the comparative gravitational force is very small.
That ability is called visual acuity. It is a measure of the eye's capability to distinguish fine details and closely spaced objects.
A zigzag road is mapped on Google earth or Google maps as a straight line unless zoomed very closely
The asteroid "101955 Bennu" is an "Apollo" asteroid about 800 feet in diameter, one of a class of minor bodies which occasionally cross the Earth's orbit. There is a very low probability that Bennu might approach the Earth closely enough to be a hazard sometime after the year 2169. NASA plans to launch a space probe to land on this object in 2016, to land on the object in 2019, and return samples to Earth around 2023.
Time in space, particularly in low Earth orbit, experiences a phenomenon known as time dilation due to the effects of gravity and velocity. This causes time to move slightly slower in space compared to on Earth. The difference is very small but becomes more pronounced as objects approach the speed of light.
No, that's not true. All planets, moons, and stars have gravity. Actually all objects have gravity, it's just not very strong for small objects.
Venus is a 'rocky' planet, with a dense atmosphere, very roughly the same size as earth, the planet that can approach closest to the earth, and the brightest one in our sky.
