Where are the places that hit by an meteor?

Answer 1

Meteorites (a rock in space is a meteor, a rock screaming through the atmosphere is a meteoroid, and a rock that falls to Earth from space is a meteorite) occur all over the globe. However, there are two interesting places to find meteorites.

1. Antarctica. With the ice and snow near the South Pole being a mile thick, any rock sitting on the surface is probably a meteorite.

2. The Outback of Australia. There isn't much there, including people. A lot of meteor hunters have good luck finding meteorites in the Outback, because the meteorites don't look like local rocks.

Answer 2

Probably the country with the largest surface area. There is no reason why meteors would prefer one country over another. They come from a vast distance, and can strike any part of Earth.

Meteors can hit anywhere on Earth but most often land in remote, uninhabited areas like oceans or deserts. Notable craters caused by meteorite impacts include Meteor Crater in Arizona and the Tunguska event in Siberia. Impacts on populated areas are rare but can happen.

Most parts. Thousands of meteors hit the earth every year. In a typical year there are between 18,000 and 80,000 meteorites of 10 grams or more, which strike earth. And they strike all over.
