Question

Write any 3 difference between meteors and meteorites

Answer 1

shooting stars, falling stars or meteoroids, meteors are debris which are considered to be part of the Solar System. Once the meteor reaches the Earth’s atmosphere, it is called a meteor, but if it survives the impact and hits the ground, it is already called a meteorite. You might have already heard about meteor showers, a popular example of which is the Leonid meteor shower.
